Hi recently my 5 year old cat Bella has been siagnosed with Cholangitis/Cholangiohepatitis. her blood tests resulted in high ATL AZT liver enzymes she has been lethargic was vomiting has weight loss etc. We have been back anf forth to her doctor he put her on clavamox, ursidoil(actgall), fortiflora all liquid meds she was not responding to meds still vomiting not eating took her back to doc she had 104.7 fever was congested he gave her antibiotic injection sub-q injection. I have been syringe feeding her water and wet food. She was still vomiting took her back this past Sat he gave her anti vomit injection and is trying her on liquid metronzidole. So far so good she seems to be doing a little better but my fear is this can come back it has been an emotional rollacoaster seeing her suffer like this I am trying to do all that i can to help my beloved friend. My concern is her weight she is typically a small cat normal weight has been 9 lbs but she is down to 7.9 over 2 weeks. What i have read was this disease causes anerotic issues because nutrition is not processed normally in the liver. Doc said next step if she does not respond to meds is hospitilization, feeding tube and liver biopsy. Please does anyone have experience with this disease, any suggestions or advice would be so appreciated.
