Came home a couple of weeks ago to my 9-year old white Persian bleeding from her nose. Scared me to death; vet did all sorts of tests; very low platelet level and gave her an injection (often used with cat cancer patients) plus prescription for prednisone (spelling?). Two weeks later, while no nose bleeds, platelets back down to very low level; another injection, more prednisone and now Atopica. Does anyone have experience with this med....she's now really lethargic and is not eating very well. I don't like any of my cats (we have 8) to be on steroids and there seems to be no real reason why the bleeding started and/or how to permanently stop it. Or could be there is no solution, but the meds are mega expensive.
If anyone has any information, sure would appreciate it.
