My sweet 9 yr. old, JaJa, has triple phosphate crystals in her urine. We've been treating her with 100mg Vit C 2x/day - but yesterday's urine test showed more crystals so we're upping it to 150mg Vit. C 2x/day and then another urine test in 2 weeks. Vet said that if the extra Vit. c doesn't work she'll have to be on a prescrip. med. JaJa's been on prednisone for 2 yrs. for another condition...
Any experience/help would be greatly appreciated.
