I swear some vets only want your money. I also fell like they tell you they need more work done than they really do. I took my dog to the emergencey vet because she was having seizures on a sunday- it was quite obvius that it was hypoglycemic siezures but they wanted to run all these test to be sure. After all that extensive testing guess what they found out????? She was having a hypoglycemic siezure!!!!!! And all the test were normal. It cost me $750. BS! They also said she had to stay overnight even thought she was eating on her own and doing just fine. Well of course that was conviently like a flat $150 fee. They shaved her on the right side of the body(trying to find a place to do an IV)and put this IV in her and when I picked her up the next day and paid the huge ass bill she still had this HUGE IV hanging from her and her entire neck was bandage from it and they said I needed to go take her to my regular vet to have all that removed and checked out anbd needed all this crap done. Like what did I just pay them to do? So I went to my reg vet and they said she was fine, and took at the IV- which they had to do surgecically and she had glue all over her it was horrible. So she was like bald on the right side of her body for quite sometime. Her coat still looks wierd. All for Hypoglycemia. I know its serious but I think they went a bit overboard and purposely charged me WAY more than it shoudl have been. Wow, I didnt meant to post a whole story. I just had to vent and the memories all came back  . I am still poor because of that day....... |
I'm so sorry to hear that and I completely feel your pain. I got lucky that it wasn't that much. And of course, I wouldn't have left him in that place to save my life! I'm glad to hear your baby is doing better too!
