Spencer update Thank you all so much for your kind words and all the support you've given me. I finally have good news, well better news. Thousands of dollars later, Spencer is doing great. He is fluid free, sassy as ever and acting like a puppy again. We did an ultrasound, changed his diet, started him on prednisone and after lots of tests and countless opinions, it looks like Spencer does not have lymphangectasia, but a kidney problem. The vets spent so much of their personal time researching his condition and I think they've learned a lot through this as well. His protein levels are low, but markedly up. He is still losing protein, but its through his urine. Hopefully, he'll continue to improve, the doctors think he either had an acute kidney problem and/or the beginning of kidney disease. Either way, he's doing great and I am so blessed he does not have lymphangectasia. I can't thank you all enough for your positive thoughts, prayers and well wishes. I could not have gotten through all of this without you. I'm off to play with my little man, and enjoy every second I have with him. Juliet |
