Canine Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia (AIHA & IMHA) - Buster's new bloodwork

Buster had his last blood work done and it looks wonderful. His HCT is now at an all time high of 51.6. His liver numbers are starting to come down and we are weaning him off of the prednisone so his energy level is coming back up. Who would have thought it just a little over 5 months ago. We have gone from near death seizures and blood transfusions to this. Slowly but surely we are getting there! Thanks to all of you for seeing me through the tough times. Here's hoping Buster and I never see them again.
Thanks,
Ronda and Buster

Hi Rhonda

Congratulations to you and Buster on that sensational PCV!! So wonderful to see some
GOOD NEWS on the board, for a change. The news has been so dismal the past few weeks.
My Mercedes was diagnosed 5 months ago, as well, and is off the prednisone and only getting azathiopine ESDay. I plan to draw blood and send off to Jean Dodds next week. Hope our news will be as terrific as yours!! Thanks for sharing the "good stuff" with us this week. It gives all of us that are still struggling along,--- "hope" for a successful outcome,---- to our own personal war, with this awful disease! WAY TO GO BUSTER!!!!! Wishing you many many more great test results.
Warm Wishes from Maureen and Mercedes
