I can't begin to say how frustrated I am AND WORRIED. I kept a log of her problem. Started on July 12th where she urinated on my bed; July 13th vomited; vomited every day for over a month; July 16 she urinated on HER bed.
She vomited everything from bile to food to liquid; No set pattern.....
July 4th, diarrhea and went thru July 6th. July 7th took her to the vet and she was put on Flagyl and Speical food (canned ID). Threw up every day July 9th - July 16th. During those days the diarrhea subsided. July 17 & 18th, no vomit; no diarrhea. July 19th vomited; July 19th was the last Flagyl pill. July 20th; no vomit, but diarrhea back. July 20th I THINK I started her on hamb/rice and fed her that thru July 31st. 21st and 22nd bad diarrhea; 24th diarrhea and no vomit; 25th and 26th no vomit or diarrhea; 27th no vomit; but soft poo (101.7 temp). 28th vomit and bad diarrhea; 29th - 31st same....horrible days.
Sept 1 started new food purina nf and Flagyl again; diarrhea on 9/1; 9/2 vomited twice and poo was soft (not liquid); 9/3 SOFT poo and vomit x3; 9/4 took her off Flagyl - Diarrhea in a.m. and late aft stool was soft but formed. 9/5 soft stool; late in day more firm but bloody; no vomit. I believe the first time I saw blood in her stool was the 31st of August.
8/24 Chem Profile 2; Chem 12; CBC & Lytes was done. Only thing abnormal was the BUN at 38; Creatinine was Normal.
9/4 they put her on Batryl because urinalysis on 9/1 detected triple phosphate crystals present; calcium oxalate crystals present (turb 1+)(PH 7.0); Under notes it says: Droplets resembling fat seen per HPF.
Okay, so 6 am this a.m., she woke up ready to vomit; I rubbed her neck and took her outside.....she did not vomit. I fed her a small amoiunt of NF canned food...no vomit today; stool is formed but soft and some blood
A lot of the time her stool is thin like a pencil.....
She scratches her ears and her chin allllllll the time and she'll keep rolling on her back in the grass as if to scratch her back. I'm SOOOOOOOO hoping all this is from a food allergy. They don't know for sure if it's colitis (parasites ruled out) or a food allergy and/or the kidney issue. I think they are as confused as I am. Also, they mentioned an intestional infection because of the fecal test showing bacerial overgrowth.
Has anyone out there reading this ever experienced a combination of what Autumn is going thru?
Her D.O.B. is 8/10/08 and she weighs just under 5 lbs. She's very active and loves to play. She does nap a lot, but I think that's pretty normal. |
