Yoda is back home tonight, he's still a bit lethargic, but he was able to eat a bit. The vet gave us Royal Canin Digestive Low Fat LF. He is to get famotidine (Pepcid AC) 2.5mg by mouth twice daily.

He was diagnosed with pancreatitis, and Yoda got an abdominal ultrasound today that showed bladder and kidney stones. He got more IV fluids, medications for pancreatitis and pain control today. We will focus on the pancreatitis first, then see what the options are for the bladder and kidney stones. It would be very painful if he had to pass it himself, the other option the vet said would be surgery to remove them...

He is due back tomorrow for more monitoring, and hopefully tomorrow will be the last day at the vet during the day.

Thanks for your continued support for our little guy, each and every prayer and good thought is sincerely appreciated!
