Keva is getting spayed tomorrow (Update 3/24)

How is little Miss Kevious today?

[wolf_Q]

Keva acts fine...she's eating/drinking, playful, etc....I'm not fine. I made the mistake of reading all the things that a high white blood cell count can mean (cancer, etc.). I hope its just an infection. Nebo threw up this morning too, just bile, he does that sometimes so I'm not sure if that's related or not, he also acts fine.

I've never heard for huskies having abnormally high white blood cell counts as a breed thing, Nebo's had his blood tested a few times and its never been high.

don´t get scared....... hopefully she´ll get that cleared out soon......

they say whenever you read a medical book you start wondering "i might have this or that, I have those symptoms"......and when you read a pschyc book you wonder "maybe john or jane doe have this they act pretty crazy".....

sorry trying to cheer you up a little......

give miss kevious a big hug from us

Too much knowledge isn't necessarily a good thing. I know that you are a good doggie mom and wanted to be able to do whatever you could for your pup, but you may just be worrying unnecessarily. Hopefully it is just a puppy thing, or minor infection and she will be cleared up in no time. {{{Gentle hugs}}} to the little cutie, and more to you.

Darn, sorry to hear that she has an infection I hope she gets over it quickly.

Now Amy don't go being like me and worrying your self to death. I'm sure if it was anything bad your vet would have been questioning it more. I'm sure she's going to be just fine. Give her some big hugs and kisses from me

Oh, no.... I will be praying for Keva, that the infection goes away soon. Keep up updated!

I'm sorry to hear this Amy, but try not to get too worried. There are a VAST number of things that can cause elevated white counts, from scary things (which I seriously doubt) to something as simple as a UTI, and even sometimes high stress level can elevate it. It somewhat depends on how elevated, but if it was something shockingly high I imagine your vet would be doing more testing and worrying about it. Please try not to worry. Look at it as a headache if you can. You can look up headaches and find some seriously scary things that cause them, but more than likely it is nothing like that and most headaches are minor and temporary without devastating cause.

You and Keva will be in my thoughts. I'm glad to hear she is acting well. That's a prime indication that she's doing just fine! Give her and Nebo some hugs and kisses for me
