    Immune mediated arthritis triggered by vaccines?

    I was giving her glucosamine but stopped when I put her on the other supplement with tumeric. Maybe I should add it back in? Wouldn’t the arthritis have shown in the xray?

    Immune mediated arthritis triggered by vaccines?

    Hi all. I have a 3 year old white chinchilla Persian who has had an intermittent limp since she got her Vaccinations in December. It was especially bad in February so I took her in to the vet where she had X-rays and bloodwork. No cause for the limping was found. She was prescribed Metacam which...

    DELAYED, prolonged vaccine reaction

    So I’ve had Sapphire on Comfort Gold by Pet Wellbeing for about a month now. She’s doing well but occasionally she will start limping again! I just don’t understand. I’ve read about Immune Mediated Polyarthritis that can come from many causes including viruses so wondering if that developed as a...

    DELAYED, prolonged vaccine reaction

    Most of the time I think my Sapphire is fully recovered (stacked vaccinations last day of November). However, every once in a while she has a day of returned limping and stiffness. I haven’t given her prescription anti inflammatory in over a week (and then I just gave her 2 doses to try to jump...

    DELAYED, prolonged vaccine reaction

    I did mix it in the her food but she wouldn’t touch it. I ordered one from “Pet Wellbeing”. You only need 6 drops of that one and I’ve used that brand for other ailments to great success. She is moving great again today after her tiny Meticam dose last night but I know it’s not good for her.

    DELAYED, prolonged vaccine reaction

    Well I wrote my comment above too soon. I stopped giving her the Metacam about 1-2 weeks ago and she was doing great but I guess the inflammation caught up with her and she’s limping again. Hate to give her Metacam but gave her a small dose tonight. Tried to give her the natural turmeric hemp...

    DELAYED, prolonged vaccine reaction

    My Sapphire is finally not limping and eating better and playing after at least 2 mouths. I’ve had her off the Metacam for about a week now and keeping my fingers crossed for no relapse. I spent about $700 and 2 vets didn’t think it was related to the shots. I don’t know any other variable...

    DELAYED, prolonged vaccine reaction

    I start to doubt myself when the vets don’t think that is the cause of the limping but there’s so many of us on this thread.

    DELAYED, prolonged vaccine reaction

    Thank you so much for the recommendation. I found out from the vet that the vaccine given was Boehringer Ingelheim purevax feline 3, with FVRV (Rhinotracheitis), FCV (calicivirus) and FPV (panleukopenia). The vet of course doesn’t think it’s related to the vaccine.

    DELAYED, prolonged vaccine reaction

    I can’t believe I finally found this thread!! My vet also said it couldn’t possibly be the vaccination combination. This is the second cat that I have had who had a reaction but this time it is going on and on. I have a three year-old rescued Persian chinchilla who I had vaccinated with the...
