Mietze observing from the kitchen counter
Mietze was sadly diagnosed with Hyperthyroidism at the end of October / beginning of November.
This was taken on the first day after she started feeling better, following her adverse reactions to Vidalta, an oral anti-thyroid drug.
Initially, she appeared to tolerate it, but after ten days she started vomiting (including blood). It's taken her around a month to return to her pre-Vidalta condition.
She is doing ok at the moment and was assessed for I131 (radioactive Iodine), which is another, possibly the only, conventional treatment option for her.
We are considering the options available to us and feed on demand (within reason), catering for her increased appetite, which is one of the more obvious signs of the condition.
