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! |
Hugs and love to Yoda and the whole Fam
! Hang in there Yoders! We're all pullin' for ya.
Oh boy....well...it's good that you're getting somewhere in terms of specifics w/ the diagnoses, bc that helps w/ some of the fears (in my experience anywho
). With stones in 2 spots like that (not to mention the pain to pass them, like you said), I wouldn't be surprised if surgery was the best option. I'm sorry you guys have to consider that, but I
am glad that you're getting some answers for the little fella.
Thanks for the update.
