Sorry things at home have been pretty crazy and I forgot to update this thread.

Well great news Apollo's poo has finally firmed up!!!

I was so excited it actually started a day or so after I talked with the second vet. I've been keeping on eye on it but so far it's going great, I started him on the Hills Prescription Diet i/d food and I think it's working for him very well

I'm so glad. He goes back to the vets on Dec. 28th for a re-check and I wanted to get his bent paw looked at again because it looks like there is a nail trying to grow or something forming on his one pad on that bad foot. The other day I had to wash that foot because he got some dirty stuff from a litter box in between his toes and he can't clean that area properly because it's bent. The thing that's growing doesn't seem to be bothering him at all and I'm not sure if it's a calus or not. He only have 4 nails on that paw too not 5.

Here is what the second vet said though:


I just heard back the guy the from Mark K. and he said he would recommend
2 things

1 - Mark said he would put Apollo on a dose of Erythromycin

and see what happens

Next if that didn't work he would do a blood panel test that would cost $150.

but that will check all the proteins, CBC, white blood counts, all the things that matter to the digestive track.

He also said sometime Vitamin B shots might help him too.


Right now though there is no need to do a blood test or anything like that since everything seems to be under control for now

Thanks for asking,
melissa
