I can't say exactly that he was sedated for the bloodwork alone. I think it was because they were also planning on doing the Sub Q fluids and then the surgery. I also don't know if they had difficulty getting the blood because he was "dehydrated." and I don't know why he would be dehydrated either. He drinks and pees just fine. I agree that I will get the bloodwork redrawn at a later date without him being water restricted prior to that. Same with the urine test. |
