Understanding Immune-Mediated Diseases

Immune-mediated diseases occur when a pet’s immune system mistakenly attacks its own body’s tissues. These conditions can affect various organs and systems, leading to a range of symptoms. Common immune-mediated diseases we manage include:

• Immune-Mediated Hemolytic Anemia (IMHA): A condition where the immune system destroys red blood cells, leading to anemia and fatigue.
• Immune-Mediated Thrombocytopenia (IMT): A disorder where the immune system attacks platelets, causing bleeding and bruising.
• Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE): A chronic autoimmune disease that can affect multiple organs, including the skin, joints, and kidneys.
• Pemphigus Complex: A group of autoimmune skin diseases that cause painful blisters and lesions.
• Autoimmune Thyroiditis: An immune response against the thyroid gland, leading to hypothyroidism.

Our Approach to Immune-Mediated Disease Management

Thorough Evaluation: We begin with a comprehensive assessment, including a detailed medical history, physical examination, and diagnostic tests such as blood work, biopsies, and imaging studies to accurately diagnose the immune-mediated disease.

Customized Treatment Plan: Based on the diagnosis, we develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to your pet’s specific needs. Treatment options may include:

• • Medications: Immunosuppressive drugs, corticosteroids, or other medications to control the immune response and manage symptoms.
  • Supportive Therapies: Nutritional support, pain management, and other therapies to improve your pet’s overall well-being.
  • Ongoing Monitoring: Regular follow-up appointments to monitor your pet’s response to treatment, adjust medications, and address any concerns.

Client Education and Support: We provide detailed information about your pet’s condition and treatment plan, as well as guidance on at-home care to ensure the best outcomes.
