I started Poppy on the Western med protocol yesterday, despite my reservations. I could not get an appointment with a good holistic vet until next week, and that vet suggested I put her on the steroids for the time being just to give her some relief. She's been on them since yesterday and thankfully her mood and mobility has noticeably improved. I'm still concerned about the side effects, but so far so good, and the holistic vet should be able to give some alternatives or healthy supplementation. It makes me so happy to see her wag her tail again after this month long struggle.
Will update as she gets stronger.
Thank you!!!
Great news that she is feeling a bit better at least!
ReplyDeleteglad to hear she is feeling better
ReplyDeleteIt must have been so wonderful to see that improvement in her! I am very happy to hear about that as well. I hope things go well with the new vet next week, and that she is able to help Poppy continue to heal!
ReplyDeleteSo happy to hear that she's doing better. I hope the holistic vet will be able to help you find alternatives or adjunctive therapies that will ease the side effects.
