Cat info: My cat here, Winston, (male estimated to be around 4 years old, neutered) 

Main Issue: has been jumping and missing the couch since this past Saturday (so at this time about a week).

At first we thought it was just from him being sick- he was having diarrhea and didn’t want to eat. Saw the vet on Tuesday, took him off the Hills science diet prescription urinary multi stress food (both wet and dry) as well as did 3 days of anti inflammatory medicine, twice daily gabapentin (0.15 ml), and probiotics. He is still on the gabapentin cuz he is so anxious lately. 

His GI symptoms have improved along with his anxiety, mood, sleep, and he is urinating fine.

But he still is missing the couch partially when he jumps. Some jumps are better than others. Our vet requested we go back to ophthalmology to recheck his eyes. If that’s normal, next she said would be neuro.

For more context:

He has a history of Feline Herpes and had a recent flare up. He has seen them twice and diagnosed with iris melanosis (benign), scarred tear ducts, and feline herpes. All his flares are treated with antiviral eye drops.

He sees cardiology, grade 2-3 murmur but not anything dangerous, his right side of his heart just overcompensates when he is stressed.

He has a history of dental issues and is getting a resorption taken out on the 13th.

I am just looking for any new ideas or information from others who may have seen this or experienced this before.

Vet said ears, eyes, legs, all look good from what she can examine by hand.

Financially I can make things work, my main concern is helping him feel better.
