Cat health issues

YANMD, or veterinarian. Family cat is exhibiting odd symptoms. Family cat has been taken to the vet recently for treatment/diagnosis. Family cat is dying all the same. Amateur speculation welcome.

She's about thirteen years old. It might be her time; it might not. I'd like to exhaust our options first.

She's had issues with digesting certain types of food before (read: vomiting). On the recommendation of our vet, we switched her to hypoallergenic brands of cat food. This worked well, for months, until it didn't.

Fast forward to today. She continues to eat food but loses weight regardless. She acts more subdued than normal and spends more time hiding than ever before. Official vet diagnosis is irritable-bowel disorder, to be treated with steroids and nutrient injections (ongoing, but to little effect).

What have we missed? What similar experiences have you had with your cats, and what can be learned from them? What else might be going on? What else can we try?
