Feel your pain on the thyroid meds though. Although we have been giving our 19 year old cat(82 in human) thyroid meds for the past couple of years. In fact we too had to have her rechecked and it was off the chart. Sounds like this might be for the long haul, you might see if your vet can send the RX to a Walmart pharmacy. Until we had to deal with giving pills in the AM and PM the meds got really pricy. The wife checked into the local Wally World and was told that it's common to get pet meds through them.
Since then, we have been getting them through the pharmacy and it's helped. I'm sure Wink will be a lot more comfortable with her new meds. The stem cell will be an interesting concept to follow.
Please give Winks some belly rubs and ear scratches from us and Sir Henry. Positive thoughts and New Year well wishes.

Your cat and his dog have opposite problems (cat thyroid too high vs dog too low) and will need totally different medications. And just as Wayne depends on us buying Pooschey products from Pelican to stay in business, most veterinarians derive income from sales of medications, and encouraging people to buy them at Wally World isn't going to help pay for that equipment or technician that might help save your pets life one day.
