This is an omen of things to come. The virus is in there and causing a problem. It is unlikely to go away on its own. Don’t wait until he is doing badly to start the Winstrol.</span><u></u><u></u></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1f497d">Again, with Zander, we saw very much the same course. Some abnormal haematology results, some lack
of appetite, temperature, licking concrete. That was in June/July. We took him to the vets, he got some antibiotics and seemed to improve. Then in September, a HUGE crash back into serious illness and we almost didn’t get him back.</span><u></u><u></u></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#1f497d">If Merlot’s platelets dropped like that, the virus is affecting his bone marrow. Don’t wait until the
effects are far-reaching and difficult to reverse. Athletes use Winstrol to build up their muscles and stamina and to repair damages tissue. My suggestion is that you use it as a supportive measure now and head off the very likely future crisis, even if it
appears that you have achieved a bit of a reprieve now.</span><u></u><u></u></p>

I've just got him settled in Phil's office, where I'll be sleeping with him for the night. He's definitely in better shape than this morning, more perky and like himself, but we are still on high alert.</span><u></u><u></u></p>

first thing tomorrow to see the vet again and get re-evaluated, and we will make some more decisions about drugs at that point. The vet has agreed to try Winstrol tomorrow if the fever hasn't come down (he's on two antibiotics right now, an anti-nauseant and
she upped the prednisolone).</span><u></u><u></u></p>
