pancreatitis
My 10 year old cat has been diagnosed with pancreatitis. He wouldn't
eat the bland food prescribed by the vet so she suggested I give him any low fat food. I give him Science Diet Light, which he likes a lot (when he's feeling well). She told me to give him 1/4 of a Pepcid twice a day. She also gave him four days of Medacam. Yesterday was the last dose. He really responded well to it and seemed to be feeling almost normal until last night when he vomited. He actually had not been vomiting, even before the Medacam. The Medacam should still be at full strength in his system so I'm surprised that he's sick again. This morning he looks like he did last week (before the diagnosis). After he eats, he just sits on a pillow. He looks like he's uncomfortable. This is exactly what was happening. He only felt well when his stomach was empty. I don't know what the next step is. I will be calling the vet today. Any suggestions would be appreciated. |
