Sebastian was hospitalized during his first pancreatitis attack for four days. They had him on an IV and were giving him daily meds via injection or in the fluid line since he wasn't keeping anything down. Fluids are really important for pancreatitis. He had a couple other overnights in the succeeding months when he had flares, but it was just one night. Overnight stays are not cheap, but sometimes the continuous IV can make a big difference. The vets monitor the flow and adjust....can't be too much, too fast. (Sebastian still gets fluids every other day at home.)
Sorry got another question. I remember my vet mentioning before about keeping Sabby overnight and putting her on ivy nutrients or fluids if she got worse. Did anyone have success with this? I know it cost more but if it will help her I am willing to do the Care Credit and do it if people have had success with it!
Was 4/30 the last time Sabbath has blood work? Not that you want to think about spending more money, but blood work is usually run periodically when there are liver issues to keep tabs on the numbers. What does your vet suggest?
Cerenia really helps with Sebastian's nausea.
I don't know what your kitty is being given but to be honest none of it worked for Patches either. I think how effective those meds are depends on the kitty. Patches was never given cerenia for nausea though, a lot of people here have had success with that.
