First of all I reread this whole thread but called hubby in here this time to read with me and I missed the part where you were feeding your baby chicken... I am just gonna share our experience does not mean it is right or wrong just means this is what we WENT THROUGH!!!
I was told by the vet to put Bleu on all gerber chicken graduate baby food.....
Surgeon at A&M said one of the worst things we did......
Needless to say he is off all baby food and will never in his life have CHICKEN AGAIN OF ANY SORT... W have been told the yorkshire terrier breeed has the most sensitive digestive system and chicken is so high in protein....
I would not want my baby to starve by any stretch of the imagination and I was only doing what the vet said do but his actual surgeon said NO NO NO NO NO....
Before diganosing his AAS they too thought Bleu had a liver shunt.... Their symptoms will make you think that.. He does not have liver shunt but too much protein can definitley make you think that....
I am sure you are doing all you know to do and I bet when Lucy is having a good moment you are thinking she is on her way to recovery and I would love to say that she is but I have a feeling she is not and I am not trying to scare you I am only wanting you to be urgent and not wait any more days before you get the test that says exactly what is going on...
Bleu was good at going to the doctor and acting like nothing was wrong ... DID PERFECT but the minute we left he was wobbling going in circles walking backwards not responding ect.... I am going to find you our whole thread and I would like for you to read it and see if your Lucy is experiencing any of what BLUE experienced...
Please know I am only trying to help you not scare diagnose or anything This just hits so close to home with me and my heart is breaking into. I want your baby to be helped and correctly diagnosed so she can live a long healthy life with you ....

You can't possibly be any more worried about Lucy than I am. You are not scaring me anymore than I am already scared. It's been close to a week with very little improvement. I have followed your thread as you were posting, and that is all I've been worried about ever since she was injured. I will, however, go back and read it again to make sure I didn't miss any.
I had already planned to call a specialist tomorrow. My vet recommended one place and there is also a neorosurgeon at the place I took her for her LP surgery. I will start with the place I took her before, as they were great then. If I'm not satisfied with what they tell me, I will contact the other one. I will make sure that everything is done to find the extent of her injury and fix it.
I didn't feed Lucy baby food chicken (not really). I flavored her water with about a quarter of a teaspoon of it to make it more appealing to her so she would drink something. I am feeding her canned dog food as she seems to have a hard time with dry.
Appreciate your concern for Lucy. I love this little one. She is very special to me. I miss her sense of humor, as I haven't seen much of it in the last week. Please continue your concern for her and pray for her that she comes through this OK.
Did Bleu get his cast off this week, or is that still coming up? I can't keep anything straight right now.
I have to go tuck my grandson in, my son suggested he spend the night here tonight. Isn't that nice, that they invite their son to my house? They asked him if he wanted to stay before they checked with me. Geesh! I love the kid, but I'm tired. Oh well!!
Thanks,
