Default Ralphie is very ill..

I have not really posted in awhile.. Ralphie is very ill. Has blood in his stool, and has been tested for everything. On Tuesday he goes to the specialist hospital for an endoscopy, and I hope they find out whats wrong. I have not slept in several weeks.

Ralphie has lot alot of weight.. he has been hydrated 5 times in 2 weeks.

Thanks for any thoughts and prayers..

Oh gosh I'm sorry to hear that!

He's not eating at all? Is there any way he could have swallowed something and it's blocking or irritating his intestines, causing blood?

Prayers going up for him right now,and for you too

Default Thank you to all

Ralphie has no obstructions that show up--xray and ultrasound.done. I suspect IBS or something ike that.. all the tests are getting copied today to get to the specialist on Tuesday.

This has been very hard on him and my husband and AI.

He seems ok for a few days, then pain in the stomach, crying..and very bad poops.. If he is not pooping he seems ok..but is losing weight.

Hei s now on on IVD Venison and Potatoe..

This all started at the beginning of Jan 2007. Although he has had bouts of diareah, they always resolved with flagyl. This has been something else.

He has lost about 6-8 ounces from his body--and he should be 4.8 or maybe a little bigger.
