Has anyone had experience with this ailment?  Apparently it is somewhat
rare.  Kermit is still not doing too well, eating only Timmy's Recipe and
Deliver.
 
The bloodwork that came back after the ultrasound showed no signs of
lymphosarcoma had an odd finding.  The eosinophil level was 36 and the
mesosinophil (??) level was 5.  I have absolutely no understanding of what
this means, even after the vet explained it to me.  I usually do pretty well
understanding medical terminology, but not in this case.
 
If anyone can explain eosinophils to me, or tell me what has worked for them
for treatment, I would be grateful.  Kermit received Ivermectin sub-q and
will receive some again in two weeks.  He is also on chloramphenicol (which
I really dislike handling, even with gloves).
 
Thanks!
Judith
