Janey is a 12 yr old Scottish Fold with osteochondrodysplasia. I found her at a shelter when she was a kitten. Her paws and leg joints especially have become misshapen and thickened and her back and tail are also affected. She takes Gabapentin and Metacam daily, along with Adequan shots monthly, but still overgrooms her back, I believe from pain.
PEMF has made an incredible difference. Really, it has stunned me to see the change in her. Her mood is better, she actually runs around a little, and she does stuff like roll around on her back that I haven’t seen her do for several years. Her over-grooming is getting better too. Her posture is much more “solid”…she doesn’t move like she’s so fragile now. I have been dreading the day I will need to do the “final kindness” when her pain becomes too great, but now I believe that could be years away.
I put the small PEMF bed under her favorite blanket where she sleeps and she gets her 30 min treatment every day…it couldn’t be easier! Currently I’m experimenting with dialing back her Metacam doses, and she’s doing great! Cindy Koval, February 2018
