Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / January 2005Update, Chablis back from the vet.
Well, No fever or weight loss. But, 2 very swolen lymph nodes, one in the neck & one in the hind leg. My vet is'nt 100% sure what the cause is & does'nt like the idea of more antibiotics...But, that's what we're doing. 10 days of amoxicillin & continue to moniter. Hope this is the last round of anti-bios for the kid (It's round 3 in 8 weeks)... Once it's done, Herbal Medecine trained dad will start boosting her immune system. My vet was kind & called this visit a 'progress check', costs half of a consult visit... Thank's Sarah!!!  SignatureMathew Butler to 2 kittens: Chablis & Muscat En Vino Veritas PS. I have cross-posted this so that Monique can have a surreal experience. ["Followup-To:" header set to rec.pets.cats.anecdotes.] On 2005-01-12, Mathew Kagis penned: > Well, No fever or weight loss.

When I was in college, I had an infection like a sinus infection. Was given antibiotics and things seemed to clear up. Suddenly I had lumps in my armpit. Scared me to death, but it ended up being that the infection had just been chased to another part of my body. A different type of antibiotic was given and it did clear up. So it could be that she just hasn't shaken that darned infection yet. Purrs purrs purrs that she clears up soon. Aww, poor baby and poor wallet, too (been there, still doing it). With all the antibiotics have you inquired about adding some acidophilus or probiotic stuff to her food - by now all the good intestinal flora must have died off. I've done this with my cats when they've been on antibiotics and I think it helps stave off some of the gastric upsets. Many purrs for her recovery and yay for your vet.

Thanks... I had her on acidophilus after the last cycle of antibiotics ended.... No point while she's on them now...But as soon as this ends it's back on it, as well as Astragulus to stimulate her immune system.
