So frustrating: Luna's lab results are back - negative!

Your vet certainly is on top of things with Luna. If the treatment for e-coli isnt to harsh/harmful to body organs than I would try that route. Yes, antibotics clear up bacteria, but there is always a source to that bacteria. It appears the source of all the bacteria problems remains a mystery with Luna, that would be the frustrating part. Would your vet consider doing blood workups on a more regular basis to compare results? Maybe a pattern might develope that would make things more clear.

Yes, this is what she said. She said it won't be too harmful to her, so it's worth a try.

Well, maybe that would be an option. Of course Luna hates to have blood taken from her, and I already feel sorrry for her when I think of tomorrow.

Kirsten, I'm sorry to hear that Luna's problem is still a mystery but your vet sounds wonderful. Hopefully the e-coli treatment will help her. Lots of prayers and positive thoughts are being sent her way.

Kirsten I really do feel for you, and I know exactly what you're feeling. I am experiencing the same thing with Pouncer. Right now he's responding positively to the meds, but in the back of my mind I am expecting to see him straining a week from now once he's being weaned off the steroids.

Poor Luna. I'm sorry to hear that she hasn't been well. I hope the vet will be able to get to the source of Luna's problems.

Prayers and positive thoughts on the way for her and ((((((HUGS)))))) for the nervous meowmie.

I too understand the frustrations associated with NOT KNOWING! Lucas (and his diarrhea) has been doing well for many months when all of a sudden the liquid poop is back. WHY? We don't know.

So here are many thoughts and prayers for you and Luna and hoping you can solve the mystery.
