Starting treatment

Mom called the vet hospital and got me scheduled for the radioactive iodine treatment on March 15. Actually I'm only penciled in for that day as their computer was down. Thank you all for the support, purrs, prayers and green papers!!! Mom says about half of the cost of the treatment has been raised which is a huge help! She wouldn't be able to afford my treatment without all the help.

***Update: I am now officially on the schedule for the Radioactive Iodine treatment at Blue Pearl Specialty + Emergency Pet Hospital on March 15. Their computer was broken yesterday but they called mom today to confirm the date and it's now in the computer. This wouldn't be possible without the help of my pals donating green papers. Every little bit is a big help. Mom is very grateful. Thank you so much! 

I'm starting on the anti-thyroid medication today and will be on it for 2 weeks. My labs will be rechecked and then I'll go off the meds in preparation for the procedure. I'm not eating much and still sneezy. I can't wait to start feeling better.

Please continue to think positive thoughts for me pals!

Love,
CJ

  5. We are sorry to hear you still don't feel like eating much, CJ. Has your mom tried warming your foods a bit? That will bring out the smell for you. Or maybe she could put a little tuna juice or (low sodium) chicken broth in it for you. We will have our mom check on the green paper situation, but she may not be able to give until the beginning of March when she gets paid. We want to help if we can!

  7. I had commented before and since then my brofur Lazarus might have thyroid problems. They took his blood and are waiting for the results. Good luck to you! I'm sure everything will go well.
