Owen introduction - Laura (Owen's Mom) - 03-03-2016 Hi, I'm Laura, mother of a cute freckle-faced cocker named Owen. Owen is 7 years old and has been battling lymphangiectasia for one year and four months. He is a happy little guy who has recently been on a steady decline. His normal weight is 22 pounds as he was always very lean and very active. His weight today is 17.4 lbs. He is on a host of drugs prescribed by a specialist and a strict diet of tilapia, rice, pumpkin, apple, bananas, and egg whites. He has become very finicky and his stools are very loose and watery. He is on prednisolone, tylosin, baytril, metronidazole, leukerin, mycophenolate, pepcid AC, clopidogrel. The specialist claims she can do no more. Despite this prognosis, Owen is fighting hard and I am trying to discover more options. For Louie's Mom: I am interested in hearing more about spirulina, as a source of protein. I understand that Louie only needed 1/4 teaspoon each day, but when I look at the number of grams on the spirulina powder labels, it seems that it would take a lot more powder to meet his protein requirements. Please let me know more including the brand you used for Louie. Thank you. ( I have been visiting your website for many months and getting a lot of helpful information.) RE: Owen introduction - DivasMom - 03-04-2016 Dear Laura and Owen: Welcome to the forum. My Diva lost quite a bit of weight also. She went from nearly 10 lbs. to a very scary 7 lbs. But she has gained it all back and more, thank God. I am also interested in hearing more about this Spirulina product. DivasMom |
