Re: I'm getting so afraid for Merlin


Thanks for asking Cybeeb. Merlin and I are doing OK at the moment. Merlin is very involved in working on his spells for the wedding of La Diva and Jerry and it's so good for him, keeping his mind off his own health just now. He has been eating well and cuddling us at night for warmth and ignoring his nice new warm Snugglesafe!

Re: I'm getting so afraid for Merlin


Sorry to have to report Merlin is poorly again. He took the top off his cyst on Saturday night and there was a bit of blood, so I thought I'd better keep an eye on it in case he got an infection - but that's not it. At 3.00am this morning, he woke me up vomiting so I got up to him and stayed up with him until I had to go back to bed because I was so cold! He was straining to go to the loo and every time he strained, he vomited. Nothing much was coming out either end so took him to the vet today.

Different vet who did examine him thoroughly and said he wasn't constipated and didn't have a full bladder. On the last two times he has had this sort of episode, he has been given anti-inflamatory injection and anti-bios and last time an opiate for the pain. This time he has just got the anti-bio and some Synulox tabs from tomorrow and something called Pro-Kolin (which is going to be impossible for me to give him I think, although obviously I'll try). He's not eating so not having his Metacam. He is exhausted and I am really worried about him. He picked up so quickly last time but I am really afraid for him now.

There is of course the possibility of CRF. Is there anything else anybody can suggest?

Re: I'm getting so afraid for Merlin


Oh Angie On a positive note, Prokolin, Promax, those sort of preps are very good in my expereince for settling tummy problems. I wouldn't have advocated Synulox as the drug of choice in this situation but I'm sure your vet has his reasons for prescribing it. I do hope that he picks up quickly as I can sense how very worried you are {{{Hugs}}} do let us know how he goes on x
