| First, I am so sorry for your loss. Regarding the steroid-pancreatitis connection -- I believe steroids can cause pancreatitis. One of my dogs was on fairly high steroid dose for quite some time, and I was told to keep a look out for symptoms of pancreatitis (e.g. going off his food). Hopefully someone more knowledgable about veterinary medicine can verify whether or not this is the case. |
