I posted in the past about our experience with Zinc's IBD.  I had thought
that she was effectively cured.  She has shown absolutely no symptoms,
but I asked for an intestinal biopsy be taken during her last surgery
anyway.  Well, surprising for me, the pathology reports came back
indicating IBD!
 
I'm not sure where this leaves us, medically speaking.  I am sure my vet
has something in mind.  Hopefully, pediapred will be enough to keep it in
check because Zinc had bad side effects with the long-term use of Imuran
(the only medication that seemed to make a difference last time).
 
Just thought you all would be interested to learn that, despite her
seemingly good health, Zinc still has IBD.  It makes me wonder about
Pixie (who was also diagnosed with IBD via biopsy)...
