Sorry to hear that. My Cali has IB. She was diagnosed at the same time as her MVD. She has flare ups and I give her Flagyl. She has had 3 bouts in the past 3 weeks of bloody stools. I took a sample in yesterday and they told me to give her the Flagyl for 7 days and that we should start her on a probiotic. Any change in her diet will usually cause a flare up. So I try and keep her on the same food and treats. I tried a new one Friday and Saturday she had the diahhrea again. She had a bad flare up a few weeks ago. She was on an antibiotic for an ear infection and we had to stay in a hotel due to new floors being stained. So the combination really set her off. She can go a long time with out a flare up as long as I keep her diet the same. I feed her California Natural and Zukes salmon treats any variation can cause a flare up. Hopefully Gizmo will feel better soon. |
