They did say pancreatitis, however I'm not sure they are 100% ?
She went to the hospital Monday morning and came home yesterday late afternoon. She did not vomit at all while she was there. Not until this morning again.
They withheld food - well she wasn't interested in it all - and then they had me bring chicken to see if she'd take that. She finally did Wednesday morning and again last night. And she has been drinking water at home too. This morning though, vomiting. I am supposed to give her 1/4 tab of pepsid AC now and I don't know how I'm gonna get it down her if she wont/can't eat!
They did suggest the prescription diet but they also said bland could be boiled chicken, cottage cheese, eggs, etc. So thats what I was trying to get her to eat since she was not interested in the prescription diet!

If it was diagnosed as pancreatitis and she is throwing up, nothing really should be given by mouth for 24 hours including water. She may very well need to go to the vet for an IV again. They need to keep her until she isn't throwing up and is eating okay.

Oh and as much as Science Diet is not too appetizing, they should've put her on a prescription diet and they had no good reason not to. I'm not sure why they didn't use something like I/D or W/D but, in my opinion, they better give it now...........
