thank you so much..  all of you who replied to me..  I truly appreciate the
kindness and experience of this list.  Thank you, BIG, for maintaining this
arena of support and information.
 
I'm was told to give jake 1cc of carafate 3x a day, before a meal.  But..
I'm now feeding him more than 3x a day..  is it ok to give this amount more
frequently?  The ulcer does not seem to be gettign any better..  and I
think he may have esophageal ulcer damage, as he starts grinding almost
immediatly upon swallowing his first taste of food.  My vet just nodded and
said I could be right.  He (my vet) has basically given up, thinking is
underlying cause in lympho, and he thinks Jake wont be getting better.  I
still go for subq's, and he is very willing to weigh him and temp him every
other day, without charge (except for $5 for the subq).  I'd like the
exprience of the list and shelter owners... how much is too much carafate?
Thank you in advance again!
