Thank you for the info. Autumn was 12 weeks old when she was fixed. The reason she was so young is because she was born with a hernia and they wanted to repair it. All her panels were negative at the time of her surgery and to my knowledge she didn't have any problems with the anesthesia.
She gets these phases where she gets the diarrhea and the vet's office just doesn't know if she has something else going on besides her kidney problem. I have her still on rice/hamb and now again her stool turned to liquid. I'm am SO frustrated! My poor baby.
Today I called the vet again and they said MAYBE she has a UI, so I've been trying to collect a sample and that's like pulling teeth. I prefer for her not to have a catheter placed for collection. I got the impression that a UI could elevate the BUN. Her Creatinine is normal........BUN is 38. Everything else on the panels are normal. Her temp is now 101.7 which I believe is normal. I don't like the fact that she is eating hamburger (protein) if her kidneys are indeed not the best. BUT with this diarreah I have no choice, but even now that isn't preventing it. So back to the vet on MOnday for more pills if she's not better.
The info you provided does indeed reflect the fact that infection could cause the kidney problem.
I'm very sorry to hear of your darling puppy, how old is she now.
Yes, very new on here and I've got a picture of Autumn out there somewhere, I have NO idea how to work this site too well. How did U get the pic next to your message?
Thank you so much! |
