Wise Old Thumper
Gemini began eating more hay and pellets on his own on Friday. By Saturday he was eating and drinking well, and making lots of nice poos so I stopped syringe feeds.
His weight is the same as the prior week and the same as his visit to the vets 12 days earlier so I stopped the syringe feeding. I also was able to stop sub Q fluids now that he is drinking a sufficient amount to stay hydrated. He remains on his Bicillin and Panacur. His head tilt is gone. It is hard to believe that less than 11 or 12 days ago he was so ill I thought he would not survive.
The vet instructions have him being on Bicillin every other day for 14 days. However, I am not sure if the vet actually meant 14 doses over 28 days because enough was dispensed for a longer cycle. He has only had 7 injections and I do not think that is enough to make sure his inner ear infection is gone when this is the third time in a little over a year he had this issue.
I will call either my normal vet, or the one that dispensed the Bicillin tomorrow so I do not stop it too soon. I have a huge fear that his infection could come back and it may be more resistant if we stop his meds now.
