Subject: Question about ulsers.....Help!!!!!
Hello i have posted before about my 6 year old boy Kramer, he has
had ulcers in tne past but i thought we got them under control, now
my vet said that he has insulinoma, he is on predisone 2 times a
day .3cc he won`t eat hard food we are hand feeding him food that is
softened and put in the blender,at least he`s eating!!!!
this morning he woke me up panting? and he seems to have a fever to
me i mean he feels hot to touch he also seem to have a cold. i
called my vet but she was out today, so i cooled him off with wet
wash cloths and gave him infant dimetapp,(i have given it in the
past) and it seemed to help, but now he`s grinding his teeth again???
my question is now that he is on predisone can i give carafate with
it or do i have to give them and hour apart(that`s how we gave it
when he was takeing it with the amoxil)??????
by the way i do have an apt at 5pm with my vet tommorow, i just want
to try to make Kramer a little more comfortable
any help would be great
thanks
jen, kramer, simon
