On May 13, 2013, I decided that I wouldn't give Milk the cypro any more. With mixed feelings, because he was as as close to ten pounds again as he'd been in almost six years...... But the behavioral stuff was becoming more frequent and the thought of his having seizures again was too much. His phenobarb levels have dropped significantly in the past year, from being in the mid-30's to the low 22's. More weight would mostly likely mean even further reduction in phenobarb levels, which is a risk I'm hesitant to take. And the thought of beginning the whole phenobarb dose experimentation again is almost totally out of the question.
He doesn't appear to have any kind of reaction to the removal of cypro. He seems mildly interested in eating, usually only for one meal a day, though. He's more of a nibbler now. And his weight has dropped fairly drastically already - I just weighed him and he's down to 9 pounds 8 oz. He's unfortunately most willing to eat dry cat food/Temptations and anything that I happen to be eating - ham is right on the top of his life. Canned cat food - not so much......
