I started this thread to help myself and others know what to expect and what can be done if their cat has bad reactions to steroids or vaccines. I couldn't find answers anywhere. In person vet visits did not help. I even paid money to speak to two online vets who also did not give me any answers...

OK, so here is the exact form of Thuja I used. Thuja occidentalis

I did not buy this on a website. I got it at whole foods. It's boiron pellets. I posted that site because I couldn't find the kind I got. What you posted, saying "some thuja has thujone that is toxic" is not what I used or what anyone should use. Thujone just means the oil of thuja. Thuja oil is...

Ineffective is still safe, just means it doesn't work. I did not randomly choose thuja from an internet search. I was told to use it from an experienced doctor who taught me what it was and how to use it. She also warned me that she has seen it work for some and do nothing for others. My cat...

Newton Homeopathics Thuja It can be purchased here or at whole foods. Regular vets do not even seem to know about this. My cat could have been sick for months or permanently had I not found a homeopathic vet.

So, good news, last night Binky started playing again and this morning he is acting 90% his old self. He followed me around when I got up and was making all his usual noises. He is back to grooming himself and looking for things to chew on (he loves to chew on stuff especially shoe strings). I...

Thanks so much for your reply. I didn't give up on the cat only vet she gave up on my cat. I have given her so many chances to help. I have spoken with her over the phone three times this week and took him all the way over there a second time just so she could do pretty much nothing. She got...

I guess I just need to leave him be and let the effects wear off. My cat now distrusts me, running from me after ten years of being so close because of all the vet visits that do not turn out to help anything. The vet just did what the last one did, took his temp and checked his gums and teeth...

I got all the papers of everything he got done that day, even the results of his bloodwork, I have them in paper form ready to go. I am taking him to the vet closest to me that is not the one that gave him the shots. I am just so bad getting him in his carrier that last time I just put the...

Yeah, he is just having so many symptoms and it has been a week today already since he got them and hasn't recovered at all. He started sneezing and coughing Saturday and today he was laying half way off the couch with his eyes half closed and making a continuous weird guttural noise and totally...

I honestly don't trust vets anymore. I am at this weird place where I feel like vets are only out for money and not caring about my cat. I'm honestly afraid to take him to the vet

I did ask her about the duration of the steroid, but she is not being honest with me so not sure of anything she says. She tells me it's a short acting steroid, two weeks tops, but all over the internet says triamcinolone is a strong long acting steroid.

I feel like he gets worse every time I put him through the awful experience of taking him to the vet. I've done it three times in last two weeks. It is especially bad because twice I took him to a vet that is 35 mins away so the drive, I have learned, is just too long for that kind of panic he...

I'm worried I hurt my cat with miralax. I gave him a little under 1/4 tsp of miralax last two days only once a day. He did have a bowel movement The first day I gave it to him on Saturday, but I gave it to him again next day just to make sure he was all clear because it had been four days since...

I see a lot of people on here having the same problem I am having with my cat after a steroid injection. It has been exactly one week since he got it. He was injected with a long lasting one called triamcinolone that was done just for a couple rash spots from allergies. He also got all his...

So, update, I gave him miralax yesterday and he had a good bowel movement five hours later. Seems too fast acting to have been the miralax but maybe it works faster in cats than humans. I feel like it played a part though in helping him relieve himself so thanks for the suggestion. I was very...

He didn't get a Convenia shot. He did get the rabies and that line of vaccines called FVRP I think. Most people I have spoke with think his symptoms are from the steroid injection. My vet did nothing when I went back there. I put my cat through hell getting him back in his carrier for the third...

Oh my. Miralax...I took that once and it made me so sick and didn't even work, but my cat might have better luck with it. Thanks for the suggestion.

OK. Yeah he is having trouble jumping. He used to love to jump on top the refrigerator. He tried to do this yesterday and his back legs gave out on the way down. He tries to be himself, but just cant. Thanks for the help.

His rash is totally gone. Hair is already growing back and he isn't licking it anymore. His behavior is awful. Like a zombie. He is not aggressive at all, but he doesn't like me to touch him or cuddle him anymore. He is still wanting food more than usual and eats his meal very fast, but he is...
