Canine Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia (AIHA & IMHA) - Rosie Update

Another two weeks gone by and Rosie's PVC went from 32 to 36. We are beginning to decrease the Pred to 1.5 tabs in the morning to 1 tab at night. See how that goes for 2-3 weeks. Still on Atopica, was hoping to get rid of that one so expensive. And we are still on Bioprep which I feel is the true miracle here. Rosie is back to her normal self and now no longer anemic. So hoping that it all stays good.

Thanks for all the info and advice. and will keep posting as she gets checked.

Well done Rosie,so pleased for you both Pam!

I, like you,am really impressed with the bioprep,and the trick is to keep Rosie on it for life to prevent relapses, but change her onto the maintenance capsule once she's stable for a bit,that's what Russell at optimum choices advises anyway.The sooner off meds the better, and I believe bioprep allows this to happen quicker.

I continue to pray for the day Nollaig has that pcv of 36- what a girl Rosie!

Take care
