Default Intestinal Lymphangiectasia

Yes, she has Intestinal Lymphangiectasia, A Protein-Losing Enteropathy. She was diagnosed 2 years ago, is now on a schedule of 1.25mg/day Prednisone for 2 days then 1 day off, on for 2 days/off for 1 day etc. She gets blood work/check ups every 6 weeks and so far no bad effects from the Pred. ( except constant hunger & urination). JaJa is 9 years old. I don't like keeping her on Pred. but our vet says it is keeping her alive & healthy...
