Prayers for Jack and even more Snoopy! Good Update on Snooopy Post #39!!!

Took Jack to the vets today - he has been having some accidents and is losing weight gradually. They did an expensive blood test which I will get the results from tomorrow. He does not have an infection or bladder stones. So he could be just getting senile OR it could be Cushings Disease - the test to find out is expensive (although if we look at Snoopy's recent health tests it is not so bad.) However if it is Cushing it means another expensive drug for the rest of his life. The vet said it may be in the same vicinity of the price of Snoopy's Keppra. OH, how we cannot afford that!

So I am asking for lots of prayers that it is not Cushings but something that can be helped in a much less expensive way. PT prayers work - so please pray hard!

Snoopy just started having seizures - the first time in a long time that he has had two so close together -NOT good news at all. They were aonly about ten minutes apart. I called the vet during the 2nd one and he said to give him 3 more valium (after the 3 I just gave him). I have to call him at ten if he doesn't have another one and we will talk about what to do overnight. If he has another one then I have to take him down to the vet's office so he can get them under control. Then he will be showing me how to give valium rectally so the next time I can give it to him before he comes completely out of it.

Something is not right now. Snoopy should be knocked out by now and he isn't. Pray hard from my boys!!!

Prayers for a good result in Jack's tests. I do hope it's just a simple
change he needs.I hope he feels better soon.

Oh, I am so sorry to hear this. You sure have had a lot on your plate these past few months. Prayers going out for Jack and you.

Lots of prayers are being said for Jack and the family.

Hang in there! Love ya! {{{HUGS}}}

Prayers for both pups and for you as well. Lots happening at your place just now, hang in there. PT Prayers on the way!

Prayers for you all - what a tough time you are having at the moment

Sorry I haven't posted yet today. Good news about Jack. The bloodwork showed no signs that he has Cushings. The bile enzyme was a little elevated so she has put him on an antibiotic. She is also looking into some meds that might help if it continues because it may be the onset of senility.

As for Snoopy, he has had no more seizures but the valium makes him very nervous and spacy - keeps running into things, getting into corners and can't find his way out and whining, whining, whining. I did go down to the vet clinic and get the instruction and stuff needed to give him valium rectally if he has another seizure that goes on too long or if he keeps having them and I can't get the oral ones in him. I am really seeing too much of these people when I don't have to give my name or even why I am there!

Thanks again for all the prayers -- I know the are helping!

Good news abut Jack!!! Hope Snoopy contines to do better.

Good news about Jack. :) Sorry that Snoopy has been feeling bad
again. Hope you have it under control for now. Hugs for Snoopy. :)

Glad Jacks Vets visit went well. Hope Snoopy is feeling better and he
suffers no more seizures.
