Yeah. But like I said, we took him back to his regular vet, and they prescribed Prednisone and we took him off the NSAIDS. The GAG+Pred+Tramadol regimen is working pretty well, as long as we keep up with the GAG injections. I’ve missed a week once or twice and he started tumbling downhill, but after giving him his GAG injection he perked back up after a few days and was back to where he was after a couple more weeks with injections on time.
I don’t know if it’s just reversion to the mean WRT the GAG, it probably is, but it seems to work.
And since getting him off NSAIDS his kidney function has improved dramatically. He’s always had kidney problems, but putting him on Pred seems to have actually helped. Maybe because he’s drinking tons of water now.
