In greater detail and testing that was done:

In March I treated them with metronidazole from my vet the last time this happened... one 5 day tx (diarrhea stopped), skipped 2 days diarrhea returned, continued Metronidazole for 3 more days (diarrhea stopped), diarrhea returned after two days, then a 10 day tx which stopped the diarrhea, added a bland diet, but it started again after being off the Metronidazole for 2 days.

I then, on 04/01/13, took Tinkerbell and Peek A Boo in for a check up. They both got an extensive exam, a fecal exam, bloodwork, and Tink got an abdominal xrays. All results were within normal limits/neg, except Peek A Boo, who was found to be in early stage kidney failure. Both went home on Sulfasalazine and Proviable (dietary supplement: probiotics).

On 04/04/13, I took Infinity and Sapphire in for their check up. They both had exams and fecals done/neg. The vet did not feel it was necesary at this time to do BW or Xrays on either of them They went home on Sulfasalazine, and she put everyone (including Tink and Peek) on ProPectalin (to stop the diarrhea).

On 04/23/13, I called, spoke with the vet, and got a prescription for Panacur filled, and started them all on it the same night. 3rd dose is tonight, and repeat in two weeks.
