| Hershey is in critical condition in the hospital :( I am so upset right now. the tears are falling on the computer as I type this. He has a history of collapsed trachea and is on meds for it. He has been doing so well until yesterday. On Sat I brought him to the groomer and his was fine the entire day and night. Sunday morning he woke up not breathing very well. I figured it was just the trachea acting up so I gave him his meds and we went out for the day. I came home to find that he was vomiting all over the house a bile type look to it. It was too late to go to the vet so I figured I would wait until morning. At three this morning he woke me up with awful breathing sounds. I stayed up with him in my lap until it was light out. He kept spitting up again. I brought him to the hospital and they found he had 104 temp. His bloodwork came back fine as well as his trachea and heart. They found something wrong with his lungs but are not sure what it is. They ran tests but bc of the holiday they wont get results until tomorrow. They are leaning twoards an infection bc of the fever. If not an infection, what else could it be? He is in an oxygen cage hooked up to monitors now and they said he is critical. Have you had any experience with his? what could it be and could he get better or will he die? |
