It has been 3 months (almost 4 actually) since Coby's GME diagnosis & I am happy to report he is still in remission & doing great! It has been a very busy & stressful time, which is why the blog isn't as up to date as I'd like. We've been traveling and will be getting married at the end of the month, so this post will be quick, but I will resume the blog after October with hopefully more detailed & more frequent posts.
As far as Coby's overall health goes, he appears stable & healthy. He is happy & very active - he has also gained 2 pounds in the last 3.5 months. We are still working with our neurologist in Boston (Dr. Sisson) via email & our local vet...both of whom I am very grateful for. We continue to diligently follow Dr. Sisson's protocol.
Coby's current medications are as follows:
7.5mg Prednisone once daily
25mg Zonisamide twice daily (every 12 hours)
10mg Leflunomide once daily
1.2mL Cytarabine injections (Given every 12 hours on 2 specific days of the month - 10th/11th)
Lomustine once a month (the same day every month - 26th) - first dose will be this month
We will be lowering the Prednisone at the end of the month - we will be giving it every other day starting September 28th until the end of November tentatively.
I wish I had more time to write & I will try my best when I have some more down time. I will try & add more pictures also of our recent trip to Florida - Coby had a better time than us!!
