Last Night:
543 PMPS (TOR at AM +11.25)
334 +2.25
239 +3.5
225 +4.5
slept
482 +8 (TOR)
slept

We arrived home at +2.25 last night and J.D. ate pretty good on Ginger's left over food. By the middle of the night he was only eating MC. At +8, I woke up to a 482 and gave him some more R and feel back into a deep sleep I guess and did not test again :oops: Bad Mom! Then, I slept through the morning alarms and was 40 minutes late for his AMPS shot this morning.
He would not eat LC this morning, so he got MC at around +1. Since then he has eaten a little LC mixed with MC and freeze dried chicken breast and EVO kibble. He is refusing to eat his Nutrived vitamins this morning. They were suggested by his vet because of his low RBC. He sometimes doesn't want them and will eat them later. They are huge dog sized chewables and crunch pretty easy, so I guess I could crunch them up real good and add them to some syringe food maybe if I can crunch them small enough.
He is currently getting half of a 500mg tablet of methylcobalamin once a day and 25 units of injected cyanocobalamin bi-weekly and this is the weekend when he does not get any.

Question: do you think I should give him a shot of cyanocobalamin this weekend, even though he got it last weekend? I think I should..


Another Question: I applied Frontline Plus on Monday, and I wonder if that would have anything to do with the pancreatitis flare up or not feeling good.


Other than that, I thought he was feeling really good this morning, and then he licked a little water from the LC with added water that I was trying to feed him at AMPS, and then he didn't act so good. He was laying out on the deck, and I guess he lays around a lot anyway, but you know, he seems to feel good, then he lays around and I think he doesn't feel good. He has been up and eating some of the morning so far and sleeping the other times. I did take him out for a quick walk, but don't want to over do it. All In All, I think he is feeling a little better each day.

And, another solid poo this morning.

It is a beautiful cool morning, and I am thinking about not going to work today, and just working a million hours tomorrow, instead. We'll see.

No advice to offer here, but I wanted to give one POV on the Frontline. My kitties all had a bad reaction to another flea medication called Advantage. It seemed to make them sick to their stomachs. But honestly, whether it is affecting JD or not I don't know. I hope he continues to feel better, our thoughts are still with you.

Thanks.
He has gotten Frontline Plus 3 times a year for years with no problems. We have a short summer flea season.

I don't know about the flea drops...my guys don't go out so we don't use them. Anything is possible though, and things change so even if he was fine with them in the past, they may have an affect on him now. But I'm glad J.D. was feeling pretty good this morning! Yay for solid poo. I hope you guys are getting in some R&R this evening.

Hi Dyana,
It sounds like J.D. is eating a little better. :-D
I'm glad he is improving.
Sorry I don't know the answer to your questions, but sending more appy vines and feel better vines.
 
Re: 06/14 J.D. +6 243, +8 292, +10 437, PMPS 384

Thanks. Actually, J.D. was not eating his normal meals but just picking the few days before he got the flea meds, so I don't think I'll worry about giving them in the future.

He ate some LC today (one CPC even :-D ), but mostly MC. I'll keep trying to slowly wean him onto the LC.
He was really wobbily when trying to walk out on the big lawn right before PMPS, so I guess his bupe dose is maybe too high.
He has slept a lot, but has also eaten pretty good.

I'm glad J.D. seems to be doing a little better today. I hope you can get him to eat the LC and not want the MC.
 
Re: 06/14 J.D. PMPS 384, +2 407 AB Question

Again, J.D. had a perfect poo, maybe a little pale in color. And then about 45 minutes later maybe less had diarrhea. The diarrhea was wet and pale and super stinky.

He is currently on Orbax tablets. Can I give him any Flagyl? Flagyl always helps him when he has diarrhea. I am guessing that the Orbax is causing the diarrhea.

He is outside on the deck eating LC with FortiFlora on it, right now. He got 1/3 capsule of Ultimate Flora at +5 this morning. He got his Orbax at PM +1. He had diarrhea at +2. I am trying to wait around 4 hours after ABs to give him probiotics.

His weight is fine. I just want his tummy to feel better.

He did eat maybe too much MC today. I am trying to get him into eating more LC again.
I could probably go back to LC and syringe feeding MaxCal tomorrow, but on Monday he's on his own.

And, I just got up to test him, and found him in his bed washing his face. That usually means he enjoyed his food, so I won't bother him right now.
