We are asked many, many questions about the diagnosis and treatment of pancreatic diseases in the dog, specifically, those dealing with the digestion and absorption of nutrients. Such diseases are termed pancreatic insufficiency, exocrine pancreatic insufficiency, and maldigestion syndrome. The pancreas has many glandular functions, some obvious and well known and others that are obscure and not understood at all.
I have been on Uceris almost two weeks now. I was prepared to start azathioprine when Uceris became available so my GI wanted to try it out first. When I started Uceris, my GI had me do a rapid pred taper so that I would only be on both of them for about 5 days. I haven't noticed any improvement on Uceris.
For example, at one agency where I worked, the minimum visit length acceptable for therapy was 30 minutes. Interestingly, in an agency Wendy contracted with, they sought to establish a maximum visit length of 45 minutes that therapists were encouraged not to exceed.In our seminars, home care therapists report an average treatment time of 45 minutes, with a range of 30 to 60+ minutes.However, this is self-reported data of a convenience sample and cannot be confirmed, though our experience in home care does coincide with this anecdotal evidence.'m in physical therapy for a rotator cuff tear. I utilize about 90 minutes, and then get massage/TENS treatment. I don't see how the therapy can work for much less time than that, 3x a week. I also do step aerobics which helps circulation and further aids flexibility and pain minimization.
