Thread: Urinary Problems-Experience or Advice

I picked up more meds today and told the vet tech that it seemed like they weren't working yet. Apparently it can take up to three weeks on this kind of antibiotic to clear severe urinary infections. They said if he is still crying when he pees in a few days to bring him in for a cortisone shot, it will help the inflammation and pain.

oups - my like button doesn't seem to work today - must have overused it.
oh I hope it doesn't come down to cortisone, I hear it can be a bit rough on the heart?

I think someone might be feeling better! Merlin had some "crazy time" last night and chased DH up the stairs, tail flickering and eyes wide!! Today his appetite was voracious and he had a whole big can of cat food in addition to the beef stew I made for dinner. And best of all? No pee accidents today...Lets go Merlin!!!

yeay! so happy for Merlin!
