True...my rescue Sweet Sophie tested HW positive late last November. She had a 2 stage treatment then a treatment for any microfiarea (sp). So it was one shot each month for 3 months.
How was she effected? Not at all...we were supposed to keep her quiet and that was quite a chore because she was full of energy. I don't know if her vet is just skilled or what but she showed not signs of pain or angst from treatment.
It was not crazy expensive (I know expensive is realtive)...I think our final costs were about $500 BUT since she was a rescue, and her vet said he understood that they come with issues that we can't begin to know, he gave me a generous discount. Which a really nice!
Today Sweet Sophie is a bouncy happy little 10# girl. She also has elevated bile acids but we got great news on Tuesday that she does NOT have a liver shunt. So now she has a shiny future.
If there is anything I haven't answered, please let me know.
Good luck my friend.
