GREAT news! Has she had the second injection of the Epogen?
Maybe it's starting to perk her up.
Hugs to that dear girl, and that she continues to improve.
Next milestone - The Hiss!

Yes, I gave her the second injection on Wednesday plus Dr. Lee had given her one, so that makes 3 so far and she'll get another one tomorrow, then get blood work done on Monday.Originally Posted by Catty1

I thought I'd give it the litmus test today, so I brought home some take out chicken and waved the bag around at the bottom of the stairs so that she could smell it. She came out from under the bed but wouldn't come downstairs but I'm not discouraged by that. Probably her trek downstairs this morning tired her out, so I took some chicken up to her and she scarfed it down. I really do feel as though a weight has been lifted off me, off my chest, actually. My heart was so sore about all this, wondering if I was doing right by Puddy and keeping her here because of selfishness on my part but now I can see that the Epogen is working. Even if she does need to be on it forever (Dr. Lee said maybe not but we never know), I'll find the $600 a month somewhere, especially knowing that she may only need to be on it once a week eventually instead of 3 times a week, so that would bring the cost down considerably. I just can't express how much better I feel about all this. I know how the Law of Attraction works and I was doing my best to send out only positive thougts but then I'd look at Puddy and how lethargic she was and I'd allow the negative thoughts to creep in. Now that she's improving, though, it'll be easier for me to keep my thoughts in check.
Thank you all for the continued prayers and good thoughts for Puddy. Now, as you say, Candace, I'm gonna start praying for getting Puddy's hiss back.
Blessings,
Mary

Great news!
I think others mentioned some low-cost options, like getting the human Epogen? Or could you order it direct?
HUGS to you and Puddy-tat!

Yes, and I am going to look into that. I'll talk to Dr. Lee about it on Monday and see what he says.

I was wondering if perhaps you could get Epogen at a more reasonable price thru a Canadian pharmacy, but all the ones I checked don't have it available, or it could be under another name in Canada. It might be worthwhile to mention it to your vet when you take Puddy back. Nothing ventured - nothing gained. In the meantime - it's good to read of her slow but steady progress. Keep it up Puddy girl!!!

What wonderful news! I'm so glad to hear Puddy is perking up - chicken dinner and all.
Please give her a hug and some scritches from me - I'll keep sending lots of positive throughts.
