So how is Zane doing?

Doxycycline-is a tetracycline antibiotic, as is terramycin.

Quote:
it goes on to say

The Tetracycline antibiotics work byinterfering with the normal growth cycle of the invading bacteria, preventing them from reproducing. This allows the body's normal defenses to fight off theinfection. This process is referred to as bacteriostatic action.

and it also says that, you should not take both penicillin and tetracycline for the same infection.

While this book is a human guide the medicine is basically the same-just refined more for people.​

Gosh, Cyn.......you all have sure had your share this year. I know I'm not alone in wishing you and your's peace soon!

We're all pulling for you and Zane.

I've been in contact with you through lots of PM's Cyn and you know that I'm pulling for you and Zane both! Sheesh! I haven't even met this boy personally, but I sure am in love with him! What a guy! Sending you lots and lots of cyber hugs this morning.

Thanks, Kitty. Then we will forgo the Doxy right now and continue the Pen-G, which is usually recommended for bumblefoot, although there are stronger ones. I have Tylan injectible, but that is for respiratory, not this type of infection.
Good morning, Stacey! Hugs right back at ya! Dont worry, I'm not ready to let Zane go yet. Actually, I'll never be ready, but it doesn't feel like we are quite at the end of the trail just yet.

good to hear Zane is going to be with us....a long, long time.

 

[speckledhen]

Well, if the infection progresses/goes systemic or if he loses the will to keep going, we'll have to make a decision for his quality of life. Right now, for this moment, we're still fighting alongside him.

That goes without saying, as long as he has a quality life left. We all know you would never let him suffer.
