Also, they added metranidazole, which was very expensive and you need a refill every month because it expires so quickly. I wonder if he must be on this. He is already taking lactulose and she said he will always be on the special diet. He also didn't gain any weight which they weren't thrilled about, even though he's eating. I feel like this will never end. In three months, they will repeat the bloodwork and check for bladder stones. I guess he will never be a "normal" Yorkie. Just a little depressed. |
is this what i am loking forward to
