Now Shilo needs your prayers. WORRIED (*post 47*)

[jenluckenbach]

Shilo went back to the vet for blood work (results tomorrow) and they weighed him and listened to his chest again.

He lost a couple more ounces (in 3 days...of not eating) but the worse news is the vet hears a heart murmur that was not there even 3 days ago. A grade 4 (on a scale of 1 to 6).

He is now going on different medication: Lasix and Enalapril

The ultrasound is on hold because it is now thought to be HEART related, so the ultrasound would show nothing.

My poor special boy!

I hope whatever it is is treatable....
