Tanner Update

Thanks to everyone for the purrs for Plavix...Tanner has been on this for a whole week now, and no adverse reactions have been noted!!!  YAY for Tanner!

He is now a walking pharmacy though, as we take two pills morning and night.

Morning time we get 1/2 of an Atenolol, and a whole Enalipril.
Evening time we get 1/4 of the Plavix, and 1/2 of an Atenolol.

Tanner is a great at taking pills, and usually doesn't give any trouble.  We have been doing his heart meds in varying doses now for 7 years.  He was diagnosed at age two with HCM.  I hate that any of my boys have a medical condition, but I am thankful that it is Tanner because he is so laid back with taking his medicine!  I think it would be much worse, if I was having to struggle with him daily to medicate.

Our next heart recheck will be in June of 2012 at the NC State Veterinary Teaching Hospital, Cardiology Clinic.  I feel so blessed to live close to this wonderful facility.
