I hate waiting for phonecalls, makes for a knotty tummy. She should be all done soon

Desley (booktigger) · « **Reply #93 on:** March 26, 2009, 20:19:07 PM »

Bless her!! She obviously doesnt feel that poorly. Fingers crossed for the tests tomorrow, and that she can tolerate the feeding tube.

Sending good vibes for Milly, i hope it goes well tomorrow and she comes home to you.

Millys Mum · « **Reply #90 on:** March 26, 2009, 18:17:02 PM »

Milly moo bags has been living up to her reputation and removed her tube and trashed her cage overnight

She has had bloods run today and her ALT is now at 900

We have decided to go ahead with a biopsy and PEG tube into her tummy so once over her op she can come home and be fed here.
It happens tomorrow morning, i just hope shes strong enough to get through it

Hi MM, Destolit is for liver disease in cats (much used in America and Australia long term with good success and increasingly here: the specialist units recommend it) and gall bladders in humans so don't worry. It did wonders for Swampy's liver. He had ALT of 1500 and it came back to normal in a year. He took it for 6 months, every day, no side effects, so very good luck with it.

I hope she is feeling a lot stronger and less sick and will be home safely for lots of cuddles asap

Thank you for this, its good to hear they can recover from such high readings

Dont' know about Destolit I'm afraid - at least with the feeding tube she'll be getting the nourishment she needs and that in itself may kick start her appetite

Thats what they are hoping, they are putting fluids down too. I guess until the meds actually stop her liver from doing whatever it is that it shouldnt be she will feel sick eating, i hope they work soon as its horrible not having her here bossing me about!

WC, sorry to hear about your dad

Milly has had 2 scans and neither found anything so im hopefull she is malfunctioning for another reason.
Theres a handy website called NOAH (www.noahcompendium.co.uk) who list all the data sheets but only for drugs licensed for animal use, so the likes of Destolit wont be listed as its not licensed for them. I used to have easy access to a BNF but not sure thats online for non nhs people

Wibblechick · « **Reply #79 on:** March 25, 2009, 19:57:59 PM »

Id been sort of avoiding this thread as my Dad died of liver cancer

but ......

Its (Destolit) used in humans to disolve gallstones .

I found this too, so it is an animal medication

Poor little puss - I hope Milly is very much better soon

Thanks for all the vibes from Milly, shes hoping they will bend the cage door as she has her escape route all planned

Shes still in hospital with a tube in her nosey, looks like a big worm

she has to stay in with it as its quite easy to sneeze out which is no good at home, i dont fancy poking it back down

Iv been in each day to visit her, i got a big wee as a greeting this evening which made the VN happy as she could finally put a tick on her sheet

I noticed today she has been put on Destolit, my vet is off on wednesdays tut tut so havnt got much info but i assume the new drug means they have found her gallbladder to be a problem? Or does it have other uses, its not on NOAH as its a human drug.

She still isnt eating apart from a little handfed jelly,but i should have her home over the weekend.

My vet was £10 more for Zentonil than Vet UK

It's a supplement of SAMe. There's tons on SAMe in liver disease online, mostly american. Hope it helps!

Millys Mum · « **Reply #59 on:** March 20, 2009, 16:16:46 PM »

No not yet, i dont mind the cost as petplan are paying lol its a supplement like cystaid/zylkene? Il see if my vets stock it and then collect, will be quicker than online.

Shes been rolling in the sun today, indoors of course as she doesnt do al fresco activity
