http://www.catster.com/answers/question/cat_with_heart_disease_not_tolerating_any_of_the_meds-54519 My 12 year old Timon was diagnosed with heart disease about a month ago after a brief episode where he was walking in circles/could control his legs. That, as far as I know, is the only time it happened. Took him to the vet, he had a sonogram, was diagnosed. :-( Vet prescribed Enalapril daily along with one baby aspirin every three days. Timon started having diarrhea within a few days. Stopped the aspirin, still problems. She next prescribed Diltiazem. Same issue. Stopped meds for a couple of days, started him on Proviable to settle his stomach, diarrhea back again!! I stopped it two nights ago but this morning he had two bouts of diarrhea. He is behaving as normal otherwise--active (well, as active as a cat is!) and is eating just fine. Anyone else go through this?? Suggestions?? My vet is amazing--but I don't think she was in today b/c normally she calls right back. So, in the meantime just looking for any other thoughts/suggestions.

Seek out a holistic vet in your area and see what they recommend. If they have some ideas you want to implement, let your regular vet know as well.
