The specialist just called and said that Dixie has 27 % kidney function, so a loss of 73% function but to not be discouraged as he has many patients at that level who are doing well on meds. He is calling in 5-6 meds to start with to a special pharmacy to compound the meds due to her small size. They should be ready Saturday night. Then after she is in them for 2 weeks I bring her back in for a blood gas test and if that is ok he will turn me over to my regular vet for followups and then add some more meds in the spring. So I am hopeful she can tolerate the meds and they work so that she can have a pretty good quality of life. Thank you all so much for the prayers and concerns. YT prayers are the best
