My cat was going through a bunch of health problems over the summer, and was finally diagnosed with having hyperthyroidism and food intolerances/inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). For the food intolerances, she is now on a duck and green pea canned food which has completely cleared up her problems with gas and loose stools that she had been having for over a year. For the hyperthyroidism, she was put on methimazole, 5 mg twice daily. Her thyroid levels went down too low after that, and we also discovered she had kidney disease. Her medication dosage was decreased twice, finally down to 1/2 tablet twice daily. Her latest blood worked showed her thyroid level at the lowest it has been, and also her kidneys are even worse. The doc told me to take her off the pills completely and then we will recheck her kidneys. He said we may want to try a kidney disease food. I am worried that she will not be able to tolerate the kidney disease food because of her IBD, and I am also thinking it is pointless to recheck her kidneys after taking her off the methimazole. Does anyone have input?
