I have taken Henry to three different vets. The first vet I didn't trust, but the last two (both in the same clinic) seem to be very helpful. They really care about the animals in their clinic and even gave Henry a free ultrasound to check for stones because I couldn't afford it. I think with the two of them together we can get to the bottom of this. I am thinking he must have urine pH issues as he once had urate crystals and now has struvite crystals. It's hard to tell at this point though because he has a bladder infection. So, are the crystals now just a symptom of his infection? Why does he keep getting infections? What does this have to do with his liver if it does at all?

Warm Regards
