At this point the health and well being of Dusty is the most important, obviously. So everything I have is all dependent on the amount of time that Dusty has before a decision has to be reached. So having said all of that. I would first ask the 2 doctors to talk and let them see if they can come to a mutual conclusion on a course of treatment. They want to go in two differnet ways and you are not the person to argue either course. Maybe if they talk one of them will bring up something that the other had not thought of and a decision to go one way or the other can be reached. Perhaps even a totally new course of action, two heads are better then one theory. If that is not possible maybe a 3rd doctor needs to be involved. I know we are getting really pricey at this point.

Basically it sounds as if you and Dusty are caught in the middle and all you want is to find a resolution and get on with some treatment. If that means observation then that's fine, but then you are not being told two different things.

I wish I had some advice on what may be wrong with Dusty, but anything I said would be a total guess and not mean anything.

Don't feel alone, I am going through a mysterious illness with one of my fur kids. It started with alot of the same symptoms. My vet thinks it is IBD (inflammatory bowel disease ). However, at the moment she is doing fine. I have an appointment for a second opinion on Saturday.

Good luck, and I would really push to have the 2 vets talk.

Please let us know how it is going.

Prayers for a full and fast recovery for Dusty. Also some prayers of comfort for you.
