I tried to lower the prednisone and it has ended with a minor relapse her protein levels were lower than 1st time she staed in icu.. We went back to Anniston I explained I wanted her to get the hetastarch to get her protein levels back up but couldn't afford another $20000 vet bill. I talked with her Dr she said Bella will get worse with age.she's 6 now. So she was discharged Friday with higher dosage of prednisone and lasix as well. This is hard on us all. She is my best friend and she never complains no matter how bad she feels. I'm just going to love and cherish every minute I get with my precious girl. |
Don't totally believe she will get worse with age! Did you see my other post? My Cookie was diagnosed in 2011 and just passed this year from lymphoma. Yes, her lymphangectasia was worse just prior....but, she did well all along until then. She was estimated to be around 12, so she lived a fairly long life in spite of the lymphangectasia.
