Motley (age 14 - the hyperthyroid cat from my other thread) may not be hyperthyroid after all.
She's now been off the thyroid pills all together for a couple of weeks as they were making her sick. She put on 0.3 of a kilogram since she stopped them :)
She's just had her full bloodwork done again, plus a urine test - and everything is perfectly normal, including her thyroid! Her cholesterol is up very slightly, and she's only a little bit anaemic - but neither high enough to cause the weight loss or any serious problems. Kidney and liver function are absolutely fine.
The vet had a really good squeeze of all her vital organs and didn't feel anything that shouldn't be there (and she's so thin it's really easy to feel everything!)
Her appetite is fine, and she's acting like her normal self.
The vet is running the other thyroid test to double check - then she's booked in for an ultrasound on Monday.
Any ideas at all?
