Ob's vet recommended that I raise his pred from 5 mg to 10 because he was regurgitating. She said his GI tract was feeling "squishy" to her as well ( I really like this vet BTW, FYI, and so does Obi). I asked her a bout backing him back to 5 after a bit and she agreed. STill, I am uncomfortable with the 10 mg. dose. I understand pred can cause pancreatitis (and he had a bout with this 3 years ago this summer). I asked about bumping him up just to 7.5 (5 mg AM 2.5 PM) but she said cats do better with a uniform dose. Does anyone have a solid opinion about this, and thoughts? she is gone next week so I cannot re-visit the issue with her.
