My JUJU BEAN is sick!!!!!!!!!!! Juju started to throw up a couple times yesterday and had diarrhea (dark brown and extra smelly) also. Then she seemed better. Then last night, she started a few time again and again. I gave her water in a syringe (by mouth) to make sure she was hydrated. Her gums did not turn white. She would just lie down and sleep and get up to have an episode several times during the night. I stayed with her all night in the office to keep an eye on her.
I brought her to the vet this morning when they opened. I talked to him and he examined her. He said she really didn't seem dehydrated, but gave her subcutaneous fluids anyway. He also gave her an anti-nausea shot and metronidazole benz (medication). On the way home, she threw up again. When we got home, she had diarrhea again!!! She's gone so many times!!!! I called him back and asked could she possibly have eaten part of a poisonous mushroom or something. He said if she did, it should be out of her system by now (24 hrs). I am just hoping that it is NOT something dangerous that needs to be treated in a different way. I'm so worried!!!! Has this happened to anyone else? If so, please let me know. Please say a prayer for baby. Thank you.
