Now that this bout is over with I did want to mention that although flare ups will be life long they don't have to happen this often with the correct management. Diet is really tricky in these cases and it will take some time to figure it out. However, his vets need to figure it out sooner rather than later. It almost sounds like they are accepting that this will happen all the time...?

If they are stumped then it woud be time or a nutritionist. It sounds like he gas failed RC LF, SD ID, SD LD, and ID/LD mix. Metro is a good drug, but when food is setting the problem off it isn't a good solution to use every couple-few months.

I took years to get E's diet figured out, but now that we have she has had no major rlares in well over a year. You don't have to settle for this every other month episode stuff. Oh and no edible chews, no treats until he settles on a food.

I know you have got to be stressed and scared. Don't worry about calling if you want to talk.
