Hi All,
6 months ago my fluff ball was diagnosed with leukaemia (Not FeLV). She was put on a low dose of Chorambucil (chemo) and Prednicare tablets but her bloods didn't change so the dose was increased.
6 months on and her latest bloods have come back really good, no leukaemic cells were detected, however.... she has lost a lot of weight and isn't eating or drinking much.
My initial reaction is to take her off the treatment, but I know she can never come off the chemo, and I've just found out that she also cannot come straight off the Pred either, but I want to reduce her dose as ive read a lot of bad side-effects.
I'm interested in how others have dealt with this, how long it went on for, if these symptoms occurred and the best thing to do.
She's 15 now and I want to give her the best quality of life, so any advice would be really appreciated.
