This morning Warp was able to eat her first meal in a horizontal position,
a slurry of A/D and water.  For the next 24 hours she will continue with
soft food this way to make sure that her regurgitation is past.  Then, if
so, tomorrow she can try hard crunchies again to see if they settle okay.
She has gained some more weight, and is fighting her meds well.  The
pharmacy is waiting for the Metronidazole but sometime from today to Wed.
Warp will have that compounded with flavoring to make it easier than the
stuff I'm working up, along with her next bottle of amoxi (very high dose
but it's working) compounded with another flavoring to make that easier,
and if they have powder pepto they are even going to compound that with
a flavor.  The stress reduction should be helpful.  She's a nervous
individual -- even when she's slightly happy she vibrates like a
old-fashioned motorized motel bed so imagine when she's nervous -- so
reducing her stress level will be good.  Her first six months before she
came her were very hard ones so she's always been a very reactive
individual.  (No biting or anything -- just a lot of tension on her part in
relation to a day's events -- either very, very happy or very, very nervous
depending on the day.) We know there's another med combo option, but this
one historically works well and with her existing medical problems it's the
better combo.
