I wrote a looooong time ago about Texas and how he constantly vomits, and has ever since birth- though it has gotten progressively worse. Well, after dropping four pounds in the last five years, we went in again to the vets. (I had taken him in periodically, but nothing ever seemed to be 'wrong').

Well, yesterday I learned that Tex has hypothyroidism..in which his thyroid is overactive, producing too much something, It keeps his metabolic rate up and running double time. It is treatable with medication, which will begin tomorrow am. All his other blood test were fine, and the vet commented on his beauty, and sweet disposition in the office (Not like the rest of you folks with wild beasts...he he he).

The vet did not think this was the reason for his vomiting- which appears chronic. We (well, he) starts Rx food called "ZD" tomorrow am as well. Won't it be a fun time at the tuxedo ranch? I now get to pill him three times (he takes Reglan, too), and switch him to poopy food!!!!! Tex will NOT be happy. But, if it makes him a fat boy again, Momma will be sooo pleased! Wish us luck as we start our new program...
