Ellie had gotten loose stools (no vomiting) last October and to this day we are still dealing with it and have to be very careful.  Something like Giardia is easily missed when testing, so sometimes metro or dewormers are used as a precaution. Then there is the good ole Tylan powder that is sometimes used for IBDish issues.
Oh and pumpkin can have the opposite affect and cause runny stool. It can be difficult to regulate with it. |
but isn't Immodium A/D also just covering things up?
pumpkin can ALSO cause runny stool!?!?! i can't win.
so what am i supposed to be doing? stop the pumpkin and give immodium A/D instead?
