She also said that if the bleeding started up again once the antibiotics are gone, I'd have to bring him in for an x-ray to check for stones. I guess that because this is my first time owning a pet and having to deal with vet bills, this is why I feel that it was pretty steep in cost...I wondered....If she gave me meds for a UTI not knowing if this is what the problem was or not, why wouldn't she give me meds for stones just incase also?? She said if there are stones and they get out of control in size, they'd have to operate to remove them. I'm assuming that if they are caught small, they can give meds for them?
if no uti i would do an xray and ultrasound to rule out stones as what were her other reasons for blood being in the urine if no uti?
