She has not had diarrhea since this diet! I am weaning her off the prednisone. I am only giving it to her Mon, Wed, Frid. Next week it will be Mon and Friday. She is no longer taking Metro so we are on the lookout for any changes with her BM. If she starts having the diarrhea then he will biopsy and histopathology. |
Lisette,
I'm so glad that Lola is doing better. I'm so glad that I sent you to Dr. Hawthorne, he knows what he's doing and I'm so glad you are following his instructions to the T. He knows what steps to take and will not take them without explaining them to you in detail. He'll never perform a test unless it is absolutely necessary.
Remember what I told you about his automatically cleaning teeth when your dog is under for another procedure......I told you not to ask him and he cleaned your babies teeth....and didn't charge you. That's the doc.
