Also when Cali got the HGE, I took her to the ER and they didn't diagnose her with it they gave me some medicine for her stomach and sent her home. 2 days later she was worse so I took her to my regular vet and she did a test called a PCV(packed cell volume) and it was over 60 so they diagnosed her with HGE and kept her for the day on IV fluids and medicines, I took her home at night and they left the IV port in and I took her back the next day to stay for the day and have more treatment. So if your little guy is no better I would get him in again. I hope he feels better soon.
I went through the same thing with my CeCe.....same treatment as Patti's Cali.
She has been on Hills ID formula ever since and thank goodness has been doing well....although she and her sissy seems to have caught some "bug" that has been going around this week, but this is nothing like the HGE episode.
I hope your baby is feeling better real soon!
