thanks Patsy, i appreciate your input.... i personally view immunosuppressive drugs thru the lens of a love-hate relationship. I personally have experienced where if it wasn't for short term prednisone, my Izzy would have died and not lived another 8 wonderful years.... but on the flip side, long te...

Hi MagChick, I would try giving some SLippery Elm first to see if that helps before jumping to the TYlan.... but if you have to do Tylan, then that is what needs to be done. Also at 112,000 USP units of Lipase..... i think that maybe when inserted into enteric coated capsules that two filled might h...

Hi Andrea, I am sure jill will respond mor thoroughly, but since i am at the computer right now :) .... i figured i'd share that Jill's dog Mickey did not have EPI but rather pancreatitis.

My thought is to just give the enteric coated capsules fi...

Andrea... just in case you are also dealing with SID/SIBO/Dysbiosis.... i am glad you started with the clay... but give that a few days (to assess) and then go ahead and add slippery elm to see if that helps or hinders the situation. IN one of you posts you said the the cTLI was high, so not EPI.......

if using 8x enzymes.... try filling one "00" enteric coated capsule and see if that works well.... not sure if this would be enough.. or if this is short-changing the enzymes by a pinch....

keep us potsed
