If it continues to be higher than it should be, we will start out at K-State with tests before she sends us to U of T. Just wanted to let you know that Chipper hasn't been vomiting anymore although he had the trembles on Sunday. Turned out I hadn't given him his Metacam that I was supposed to. She said that it is painful for the doggie to have the gallbladder dump so much fat. Don't really understand that all, but the meds helped. I was panicking for a moment. Thank you, again, for all the information. ~Joanne~ |
Joanne,
Here's a link posted on the YTCA.org website. If you go to YTCA.org the website will come up. Hit the area that says with frames, it'll take you to the next page. On the left side you'll see Health, click on that and there is all kinds of information you can browse through, there is also a question and answer page taken from the Seminar Dr. Center's held at the Roving Specialty in Memphis.

Deb is correct any kind of medication and or changes can skew the test results.
