    Potential Side Effect From Metaclopramide / Reglan. Need Feedback Please

    So I went to the neurologist and the exam went well. She said that if this is a reaction to the medicine (which is rare) that it could take a few weeks for the twitching symptoms to lessen and hopefully go away. Not that I want to second guess a specialist, but does a few weeks after stopping a...

    Potential Side Effect From Metaclopramide / Reglan. Need Feedback Please

    Thanks for the quick reply. I just can't stand seeing her with any kind of problem and the more I dig looking for answers the scarier stuff I read about. I need to stop making myself sick by worrying because I know it's not healthy for any of us. The thing that scares me is that people are...

    Potential Side Effect From Metaclopramide / Reglan. Need Feedback Please

    Hey everyone. I'm hoping someone on here has had some experience with this or can maybe give me some peace of mind. I'll spare everybody the long story of my baby Noelle who had some very serious issues in the past that we have fought through. She has been on prednisolone for years for issues...

    coconut oil

    Hey sorry I'm late to the party. I definitely agree that coconut oil has awesome health benefits but I have been hesitant to give some to one of my girls. She was diagnosed with triaditis a few years back and has been doing well with the regimen I have her on. I would love to add some coconut...

    Freckles - pigment change - Melanoma???

    Thanks for all the info! I spoke with the eye doctor again and my normal vet to just go over my concerns, and the ophthalmology dept said that if there is any change like the spots are no longer smooth or they become a concern they can just zap it with their laser as long as it is caught soon...

    Freckles - pigment change - Melanoma???

    So if you don't mind me asking a few questions... Was there ever the option to use the high energy laser on Bracken to try and save the eye, or was the condition too far advanced that there was no way? If caught early enough is this a possibility? I'm really scared about Noelle losing an eye...

    Freckles - pigment change - Melanoma???

    this is a pic I shot two days ago. If you zoom in you can see what I'm talking about. Again, the eye doctor said she not concerned, but has anyone seen anything like this that HASN'T turned cancerous?

    Freckles - pigment change - Melanoma???

    Hi all. Figured I would post on here to try and look for peace of mind. About 5 years ago I noticed a small brownish freckle on my girl Noelle's left eye. I brought her right to the vet who said that 95% of the time nothing comes of it and I shouldn't worry. At the time I didn't. To this day...

    Feline Triaditis. My experience and concerns/questions

    I have to say, the only time Noelle won't eat is when she Is having a flare up. Her flare ups thankfully only last a couple of hours and trust me even that feels like an eternity. We have her on 2.5 mg prednisolone daily again since every time I taper her to every other day she has issues. I...

    Feline Triaditis. My experience and concerns/questions

    Noelle is doing fine now that she is back on the pred every night, but it's been two weeks and my vet wants to taper back to every other day again to give her a rest from the medication. I also eliminated the digestive enzymes from her diet and instead of using pill pocket treats to give her...

    Prednisolone not available??

    I was able to finally get some through Drs Foster and Smith's website. You can order it on there and they contact your vet for you for approval. I was able to get 100 pills for like $17 which will last me over a year! Check them out to see if they still have it available. I believe it's the...

    Feline Triaditis. My experience and concerns/questions

    Not sure if anyone is still following this thread but I will post anyway. Just giving an update on Noelle. She has been on 2.5mg of prednisolone this whole time and for the most part doing well. Every time we tried to get her down to every third day she would have some kind of flare up within a...
