I don't have her numbers. I was so thankful to get a dx that I didn't even ask for a copy of the results. Office is closed today but I will get copies in the AM. I do know that the vet said the amylase and lipase were "off the charts" and consistent with pancreatitis. Would this be the case with IBS or colitis? Also, she did have a few sporadic episodes of white foamy vomit earlier in the week but nothing like others are describing when their little one had pancreatitis. Hmm, now this has really got me thinking. |
oh trust me when they have this the vomitting is horrendous and they cannot lay down as they are in so much pain tossing and turning doing prayer position. I just dealt with him vomitting this week when dex vomits it takes forever for him to stop scared me to death as had horrible flash backs but he was not tossing and turning so we made it through it. Amylase and lipase can also be off due to ibd as well per our internal medicine specialist as well as the cpli so she said some dogs will test high on the cpli but not have all the symptoms of pancreatitis and that is ibd. She is doing a study on pancreatitis right now. I think the vomitting would have been alot worse but maybe she had a mild case of it which mine had a severe so that could be the difference.
what did you feed the 24 hrs prior to this? what percentage of fat content and protein in dog food?
