Jasmine again

She lost half a pound the last week, darn it. She is eating well on her Royal Canin rabbit food, canned & kibble. She had no breakfast due to tests this a.m. so maybe that was it. She will have 3 tests from her feces and blood, results in a week or 10 days. Wasn't able to see the vet but gave vet tech my info about Cushings. I really think she might have that too. Out of 19 or 20 symptoms, she has 14 of them. On his records, the vet said the PLE is caused by IBS (which the former vet was treating for 18 months), lymphoma or lymphanciectasia. Her stools are a lot more firm now & she only poops about half as many times as she did before. Prednisone is cut down a bit the last week. In further news, old Buffy tells me she loves meatloaf (I want more), broccoli, and Arby's roast beef sandwiches. Again, at her age, she hates the KD kibble and canned and I really want her to enjoy her last days. She and I so enjoy eating. Oh yes, she helps me with bacon (bad, I know) and cinnamon rolls. Jasmine's vet bills for the last week are now over $800!!!!!! But she's still with me and that's the important thing. Gals at vet clinic seem to adore her too, always come out and make over her.

I'm glad the girls are eating and enjoying it - even if Buffy's diet isn't perfect! I think that's the way to let her live out her twilight - whatever she wants. I hope you get some answers for Jasmine. Lots of good thoughts for you and your girls.

I feel badly I'm not feeding her the kidney KD food but she absolutely refuses to eat it. She's really on just crap food now, even weiners which she adores. I wish she would like the KD for her own good and I tell her it's for her own good but she sniffs and sticks up her little pushed in nose and ignores the food. She's telling me now she doesn't like rice and chicken at all and kind of hates mac/cheese, just stop giving them to me, Mom.....I'm so glad she's still with me tho and eating at all.

Joanne:
lymphanciectasia is the most common form of PLE. I hope you get some answers for both of your sakes. I know this must be hard on you as well as her.
