Logan is very sick - urinary blockage

[ramanth]

MSU called. Good news and bad news. Logan ate a little more after we left, but he also pulled his catheter out last night.

They ran another blood test and his values did come down a little more. His temperature is slightly elevated (103.2) but that could be due to stress. If it doesn't come down, they'll administer antibiotics. His ultrasound is scheduled to be around 3 p.m.

I'll be visiting him around 5:30.

MSU doesn't offer payment plans. It's to be paid in full when Logan is discharged. We'll use the Care Credit card, but our limit is $4,800. Right now we're looking at over $2,500.

I'm so sorry to hear that Logan is still at MSU but I'm glad that he ate more and that his values have come down a bit more. Hopefully his temp will also improve. I know how it is to receive large vet bills and hopefully he won't need surgery. Logan remains in my thoughts and prayers. Please take care. (((HUGS)))

BIG PRAYERS for Logan, that if he DOES have anything that it's cured quick, and mostly that he can come home soon where he will feel better more quickly!

Good news indeed. Logan's kidney values have come down to normal!
The ultrasound showed NO stones. There were struvite crystals however and the walls of his bladder were thick. However, the bladder could be thick merely from the catheter so they are not overly concerned.

They will remove his catheter tomorrow morning and if he is able to pee on his own without straining too much, they plan to let him come home tomorrow evening.

Keep those prayers coming!!

YaY for Logan! I sure hope he gets to come home to his family!

I thought The Lad had already "removed" his own catheter.
I take it the White Coat stuck it back in?

Boots never managed to pull one out ... maybe Logan wants to become a White Coat?

Purrayers continue for a restful night and his ability to *pee* to everyone's satisfaction.

This is great news. Hopefully he'll be able to come home tomorrow night. He remains in my thoughts and prayers.

LOL! Yeah, the mean ol' doctors put his cath back in. I was also told he was fiesty during the ultrasound. No bloodshed though.

This is such great news Kim. I'm so happy but continuing my prayers for dear Logan.

Talked to the tech at MSU. Logan's IV site became inflamed last night so they removed it. Other than that, he's doing well.

They'll remove his catheter soon. If he drinks and pees, he can come home. If he doesn't, the cath and IV go back in.

Fingers and paws crossed!!!!

Still hoping Logan gets better soon so he can be home where he belongs.

[Randi]

Oh, I hope Logan's catheter will come out, and stay out! And I hope he'll pee a nice puddle so he can come home.

Sending good thoughts!
