We just got home. Her temp is up. Her blood pressure is up. She doesn't seem to be twitching. They gave her oxygen and her breathing isn't to as bad.. I still don't know what's wrong with her.

These are the possibilities:

Pneumonia (but her white blood count isn't elevated)
Heart failure (but she's less than 2 years old, no damage shows on xray, pulse is good, blood pressure is good, no abnormal heart sounds)
ruptured disk
migrated pin

The pins have migrated. One broke and traveled to the skull. Doc's not sure if it's inside or outside the skull. Can't tell without ct scan. Same thing with possiblility of ruptured disk.



Symptoms could fit with a pin that traveled into the brain, but the doctor feels that the symptoms would be more severe in that case.

They gave her an injection of Lasix and sent her home with Lasix tablets and an antibiotic in case it's pneumonia. I was told to treat her with extreme care in case it's the ruptured disk.

I have to take her in to my vet tomorrow to have another chest xray to see if the fluid (or whatever) is gone from her lungs.
