Oroquin-10 shipped finally

Friday, the vet called me back with an update on Isis’ meds: they should arrive Saturday morning via overnight, morning delivery. Yay! I should have had them on Wednesday, but at least they will be here tomorrow. With any luck, Isis will eat the meds in her food.

My vet also said that we should have the results of Isis’ EPM ELISA titer results today or Monday. The Peptide-ELISA test is different from the regular EPM titer test. The Peptide-ELISA test determines which phenotype of protozoan is active. These test results can provide a hint about which treatment will be most effective against the phenotype(s) found in the current infection.

Very cutting edge stuff. It’s exciting to have this option.

    I should have known better. Isis is lame again today. Again, seems impossible to tell exactly which leg or area is causing the lameness. No swelling. No heat in her legs or feet. Maybe just ouchiness? It’s been almost a week since the trail ride. I did find something interesting: she did not want to…
