Treatment and Outcome


Treatments
Day 97

Notes:  O is at the Wu Mei Wan and XCHT 1/2 tsp twice daily. She said that his food obsessiveness has returned and he is not losing weight but is not gaining either. She did not bring him in unfortunately, so no new tongue and pulse info. I kept him on WMW but instead of XCHT, I changed to Halscion as I felt like the voraciousness needed the hit of Yi Guan Jian and his anxiety around the pregnancy needed the CHJLGMLT. Make sense?


Day 488

Notes:  Overall doing well. A full year since we've seen him! Has gained some nice wt. A concern recently, has horrible gas! SO rancid and sour, all day long in the last 2 mth. No recent change in diet - fed Orijen Reg Red 1 cup BID currently. O considering some dehydrated raw - Smack. Still also insanely hungry, grabbing stuff off counters, eating food from highchair, etc. But obsessive about food. Still has a hard time regulating himself, rattled easily, barking and running around. Doesn't seems to be able to relax, lie down like normal dogs. O feels badly because they get really frustrated with him. Giving Pred 5mg 1/2 tablet SID in am. BMs WNL but stinky too.
