    Acute Common Bile Duct Obstruction in 12yo Cat

    UPDATE, 8/22 Wilhelm had blood tests done on 8/16, and the results show that he is responding well to his current course of antibiotics. His liver values, specifically his ALT, had dropped significantly from their high levels found on 8/3. He continues to take antibiotics. The internist in...

    Acute Common Bile Duct Obstruction in 12yo Cat

    Thank you for emailing me to ask about Wilhelm, Dr. Jeff. His case-taking appointment with Dr. Facinelli was on 7/31, and I picked up the remedy she prepared for him (Calcarea Carbonicum) on 8/2. But before I could give him the first dose of Calc Carb on 8/3, he began exhibiting symptoms of the...

    Acute Common Bile Duct Obstruction in 12yo Cat

    <strong>Wednesday, 7/18:</strong> After spending much of 7/17 vomiting, Wilhelm spent a lot of scratching and grooming himself, especially his face, between 12 and 1 am. Between 4:45 and 6:30, he drank from the water bowl a few times, but only nibbled at food. He continued to groom himself...

    Acute Common Bile Duct Obstruction in 12yo Cat

    UPDATE, Tuesday, 7/17: Wilhelm had another rounds of vomiting today. Sometime between 9:20 am and 12:45 pm, he vomited up a small hairball and tan bile. (I wasn't home at the time, so I don't know precisely when he vomited or what other symptoms he exhibited at the time.) 6 pm: He woke up and...

    Acute Common Bile Duct Obstruction in 12yo Cat

    UPDATE: Wilhelm had two vomiting episodes two days in a row. Here's what happened each day. <strong>Sunday, 7/15:</strong> 2:15 pm: Wilhelm vomited a huge hairball that also contained some pieces of undigested cat treat that he'd eaten at 8:30 am. Then he vomited up yellowish brown bile in...

    Acute Common Bile Duct Obstruction in 12yo Cat

    <strong>UPDATE from Sunday, 7/8: </strong> After Wilhelm regurgitated undigested wet food, I asked myself, "How would I employ the HMDM here if Wilhelm hadn't had his triad dis-ease episode?" I set my <strong>goal:</strong> To keep support Wilhelm's vitality so that it can keep him from...

    Acute Common Bile Duct Obstruction in 12yo Cat

    <strong>UPDATE 2, 7/8: </strong> Not two minutes after I hit "submit" to post my last update, Wilhelm regurgitated undigested wet food that he'd eaten 25 to 25 minutes prior. Just before the regurgitation, I saw him flicking his tongue and licking his lips repeatedly for about 60 seconds; this...

    Acute Common Bile Duct Obstruction in 12yo Cat

    <strong>UPDATE, 7/8</strong> 1. Wilhelm has been seeking out cardboard—such as boxes and book covers—to chew on. This is an interesting development, because before his dis-ease flared up as a liver-gallbladder-pancreas ("triad disease") episode, this chewing on things was one of Wilhelm's...

    Acute Common Bile Duct Obstruction in 12yo Cat

    Thank you, Dr. Christina! I have submitted my new-patient form to Dr. Jeff, and now I'm doing the next steps: writing Wilhelm's personality profile, gathering Wilhelm's medical records, filling out a treatment form. Dr. Jeff and I will be working together soon. My regular vet is thrilled that I...

    Acute Common Bile Duct Obstruction in 12yo Cat

    After reviewing the mini materia medica in your "Acute Homeopathy for Animals (toolkit)," I'm wondering if <strong>Belladonna</strong> would be a good fit for Wilhelm's current collection of strongest, most-noteworthy symptoms. Not only does he have "Grand mal and petit mal seizures. Twitches...

    Acute Common Bile Duct Obstruction in 12yo Cat

    UPDATE, 7/4, 8 pm: Wilhelm and I are back at home after our trip to the ER vet. Since Wilhelm was acting normally both before and after the seizure, the vet felt comfortable letting me bring him home. No anti-seizure meds were given. But I am to immediately bring him back to the ER vet if he...

    Acute Common Bile Duct Obstruction in 12yo Cat

    UPDATE, 7/4, 4:20 pm: Wilhelm had a seizure, and we are currently at urgent care. He hadn’t displayed any new symptoms between my last update and this one. The only treatment change was that I’d given him his first dose of Urididol (prescribed for gallstones) at 10 pm on 7/3. He was sitting...

    Acute Common Bile Duct Obstruction in 12yo Cat

    Thank you, Dr. Jeff! I really appreciate what you said about the homeopathic combo remedies I had been giving him. Knowing that they likely caused his underlying vitality imbalance to express itself more dramatically is reassuring. 7/1 BEAM Update (evening), changes I've noticed in the last 24...

    Acute Common Bile Duct Obstruction in 12yo Cat

    Thank you, Dr. Jeff! I am confident that Wilhelm's vital force can heal his body. But I think it will need a lot of support, probably over a long time frame, because it has been compromised for so long. What he experienced the last few days is, I believe, a severe flare-up of a longstanding...

    Acute Common Bile Duct Obstruction in 12yo Cat

    UPDATE: The second ultrasound, focusing on just the gallbladder, liver, and pancreas, shows that there are stones in the gallbladder and dilated ducts in the same area. The internist says that the stones are not obstructing the ducts, but could move to do so. The liver is darker than usual...

    Acute Common Bile Duct Obstruction in 12yo Cat

    <strong>My goals:</strong> (1) Immediate term: to quickly, but gently cure my cat Wilhelm’s blocked common bile duct (acute condition) that is causing him pain and dangerously affecting his health. (2) Longer term: to cure what has been a long-standing pattern of digestive upset—one that I...
