I know that you had Angel's stool sample done again right after she completed her meds. My vet's office won't do a repeat stool sample till at least 30 days following the meds to really ensure that the giardia is gone and it is not just the meds still in the system, particularly since they are cyclical. The first round of Pancur treatment for Sissy didn't work and a month later the traces of Giardia became a mass outbreak. She won't have a repeat stool for another couple weeks since they wanted to wait 60 days after treatment this time (as her treatment was much longer). So, we'll have to wait and see what that shows.
In the meantime, she has been well with no diarrhea, mucous or blood. Time will tell with Sissy. I have been told it is difficult to rid and may require multiple treatments. Good luck with Angel. I would have another stool sample done to make sure the Giardia is gone.
