I never had expected the Interferon to cause red cell or hematocrit changes. Where can I find information about that? 



Thanks, 



Margo

My experience was that the interferon did absolutely nothing for my Zander. I checked his blood work weekly to track what was happening, and even though I left him on it for several months (with blood transfusions, to ensure there was a chance for it to work), there was no effect at all on the red blood cells or haematocrit. 



Do not wait if you don’t see improvement. My strong suggestion is to put him back on the doxycycline and try again for some Winstrol.

Hey... Hodor was pretty steady and eating well, good energy... Until Wednesday. Since then be seems to not have enough energy to move very far. Not eating well, or drinking well. One of his eyes started tearing occasionally. He still gets excited about treats and a water bottle we freeze for him that he likes to lick. He has been on interferon for 2 weeks... This past week was his 7 days off. He started back last night. Has anyone had interferon experience and seen their cats drop on the week off? Any suggestions? I don't want to lose him. We are also giving him prednisone, Pet Tinic and Dmg. 

I don't think the URI cleared before they stopped his doxycycline... Even though I expressed concern they said stop for now... I want to start him again....any thoughts? I don't think his immune system needs this extra stress! He was doing so well when he had the doxycycline. 

Thank you.
