I don't even know what to say about Austin. I really hope the benefits are gonna outweigh the side effects. He peed during the night for the past two nights, I waited until he went outside then cleaned it up so he wouldn't see me because I don't want him to feel bad about something he can't help. He's been on 30mg's since Saturday, and I really haven't seen that much of a change in him on the lower dose. I hope in time it evens out, because I hate seeing him like this. This morning I even caught him outside eating mulch.

I know how bad you are feeling about Austin - they are so sensitive and when they have accidents they look so embarrassed and sorry! :( I hope too that the medication side effects will go away once his system gets used to it. Keeping you both in my thoughts, and you give Austin a big hug from me, please.

My thoughts and prayers are with you and Austin. Just keep letting Austin know how proud you are of him and give him some extra love from me.

Hang in there. Did the docs say how long Austin would be on the pred., or if the plan is to get the dose down lower? Sorry if I missed that in an earlier post. Hope things get better for you and Austin soon, we'll keep thinking about you and sending the good vibes your way. Take care!

Thank you everyone for your kind thoughts. The plan is to keep him on the higher dose for three or four months, depending on how it goes on May 9th when he goes for a check up, then wean him down.

I really need to make a bigger effort to check in here more often. I'm just seeing this post for the first time today. I'm sorry to hear about Austin. I hope the treatment works and that he gets through this with flying colors. I'll keep both of you in my thoughts.
