Your comments to Antonio are absolutely spot on. We are truly pioneers, and this is the wild west in a sense. We are the ones that have to apply a huge amount of tenacity and commitment - mentally, financially, and emotionally, to venture forth in this treatment plan. Furthermore, we have to go many extra few miles to i.a. convince the veterinary professionals of our intent, source the medication, and actually apply the treatment! We are documenting and sharing our own case studies, 'crowd-sourcing' and 'crowd-learning' in a sense all of the various experiences.Antonio65 There are people fighting to get these drugs more available. In the future, we may have access to it through better channels and with less expense. UC Davis has been doing testing. I am so sorry you lost your kitties to this but hope for the future comes through learning about all of this. You and LizaS33 have contributed to the knowledge that we need. Thank you for that and for giving everything you could to work towards life. My heart is with you both.
I can only hope that in a few years' time, treatment for FIP will be entirely commonplace, completely acceptable as a normal veterinary practice, and seen as a normal treatment course with a high cure rate.
