Some good news about Kenzie
"Gandalf" ... And it's about time, too! Kenzie had a markedly enlarged lymph node near the hinge in her jaw. It was 8-9mm; a good sized lump that was easy to palpate. TED gave her 2 antibiotic injections, and put her on amoxicillin. She had no signs of an infection: no fever, normal white count And now the lump is completely gone. Yea! I was concerned it might have been a lymphoma. I will start Kenzie on the Tapazole for her hyperthyroidism again tomorrow. I'm going to try giving her 1/2 the dose of Tapazole, for 2 weeks, at least, and then try to increase it, slowly, and hope she doesn't get sick again. I hope my plan works: Kenzie continues to lose weight. That IS great news. I think your plan will work. She has to gain more weight, not lose it...tell her that. She is going to be just fine with the love and care you are giving to her., PURRS Kyla ~=^..^=~ Mosey giving Kenzie a Get Well smooch 8 ~~~~~~~~~~~~ ^..^ "Life without cats would be only marginally worth living." -TC, and the unmercifully, relentlessly, sweet calico kitty, Kenzie. Every day is a treasure with Kenzie; I try to treat them that way. There will only be so many, and then there will never, ever, be any more. How you behave towards cats here below determines your status in Heaven. - Robert Heinlein |

This is a bit worrying - if you can't turn this around, she'll probably need more tests. Purrs it's nothing serious. -- Joyce ^..^ To email me, remove the XXX from my user name. |
