He is taking:
An injected steroid, and sorry but I dont' forget which one he got, at teh vet's yesterday and we'll inject Ivomec (just an infintisimal amount (looks like about 0.001 ml) this evening.
Florinef, approx 1/6 of a 0.1 mg tab once a day
Prednisolone 0.2 mg once a day
Milk thistle with food starting today. (I'll probably put some Nutrical in that batch to reduce herb flavor.)
There is something else he's going to get for liver support, and again I apologise for not recalling the name. It began with an "L" if I recall right.
Carafate 3 time a day
Cimetedime (forgive any spelling error, please, and I don't have concetration herebut I think it is standard prep) 0.1 ml three times a day
Amoxi 0.25 ml of standard prep, twice a day
Biaxin may be added depending on his response. Certainly, if there is a helicobacter problem he'll need it but we aren't sure there is a helicobacter problem.
We're going to see about getting his x-rays on line. The first ones will be e-mailed from digital photos, but we'll try doing a better resolution one by having our vet bring the x-rays and Steve will scan them and then put them on a website.
