    Jenny!

    This is so helpful and super interesting. Interesting that you are carrying out faecal transplant before immunosuppressants in some cases!

    Thank you!

    Hello.

    I really think most of these bloods could be explained by age then.

    From an infectious disease POV, I suppose you could argue that some infectious organisms are intermittently shed, so the faeces could be a false negative.

    I would definately consider 5-7 days of fenbendazole regardless, and this would even be worth repeating after 2 weeks if a course has already beeen given.

    Did you say folate and cobalamin had been run?

    Keep us updated with progress.

    Scott 🙂

    Thanks Emma!

    That is a good point! However, I am sure some urine made its way in there too!

    Hello!

    I agree with Alison. I think many of the changes here could be explained by age, particularly the ALP, RBC changes and possibly albumin.

    The low albumin could still be due to GI loss or renal loss. Difficult to say definitively. A UPC would help determine whether it was renal. The albumin could also be due to a negative acute phase response. Overall, for the age of the dog I am not sure the albumin reduction is that dramatic. I would keep an eye on it however!

    If there is any question overgrowth I would definitely do a bile acid stim in this case. cPSS cases can present in such a variety of ways, with such variability with general biochemistry and haematology.

    I think it is SUPER unlikely but I may do a basal cortisol in this case to rule out Addison’s.

    I am sure Jenny will have other thoughts.

    Hope that helps.

    Scott 🙂

    Rosie!

    Lovely to hear from you and great to have you on the course!

    If you ever need any help/support with the medicine certificate, give me a shout! I hope maternity is going OK… not sure how much dead time you will really have… you need to sleep too! 🙂

    Although this is a platform for veterinary education, I can also provide some good Netflix recommendations!

    Thanks again.
