Hello all, I am reaching out to anyone who has had experience with gastric ulcers in their precious furbaby. I currently have one who has this problem and I don't know who is more sick over it, him (Smeagle) or me. We have been to the vet, had X-Rays and have medications and all the like, but I am concerned that my constant forced medicine and feedings are even more stressful for my baby and that worries me. I even pulled off a "Duck Soup" recipe and made a batch to feed him, but he of course does not like it. Since last week I have been administering something (food and meds) morning noon and night, literally. I even come home at lunch to feed/care for him. I feel so bad for him, but I know that I am doing the best I can for him right now. I even mix meds with food to reduce the number of forcings and try to hold him a lot so that he does not see me and think about a scruffing and forced yuckies in his mouth. If anyone has any additional thoughts, tips, hints, or suggestions about his gastric ulcer, I would more than welcome them. I myself may develop an ulcer thinking about how he does not feel good and that there is nothing more I can do except let time and medication heal him. I have done a lot of reading about it, but I wanted to hear from trusted FML members. Thank you everyone. I always value your opinion!
