She's not doing any better today, in fact she's doing a little worse, her appetite is even less now, to the point where she will barely eat anything. I'm going to cook her up some chicken & maybe some rice in a little bit and see if she'll eat that. She won't eat her usual raw diet, the evo, any dog treat and even most people food scraps. Her gait was a little better this morning but now it's back to what it was like on the second day that this all started.
There is no diagnosis yet. Her bloodwork is a little worse too, her bun & cre are even higher and a couple more things are off too. Thank god that those are not that far off at all though and are not as dangerous. Most likely she'll continue to get fluids for at least a few more days. Her gait was a little bit better this morning but now it is about the same it was on the second day that this all start.
We think vestibular disease is off the list though. She probably would of been showing other symptoms by now.
I could probably find out if it was a brain tumor or blood clot by an mri but I just don't have that much money to test for something that I probably won't be able to do anything about anyways. Don't get me wrong, I love her & will do anything if it will help us diagnosis AND correct her problem.
So for now, she's getting fluids, pain meds, pepcid to coat & calm her digestive tract (hopefully this will increase her appetite), lots of natural supplements for joint inflammation, care & pain, etc... If she doesn't get any better, or if she gets worse, then on Monday or Tuesday we'll most likely go & see a specialists(s).
I just wish that I could do more for her. I hate to see her like this. I just want to make her better.
She thanks you all for the prayers & comforting thoughts. She says to keep em' coming!
