My poor Tucker had diarrhea for 2 weeks and was on flagyl, that's getting better, BUT, the vet ran labs, and his calcium level is 5.9, she said she thinks it's hypoparathyroid. She wants him to take .1 microgram of calcitrial, which only 1 pharmacy is willing to make the dose for his 7lb. size. I get it tomorrow. I gave him a 1/2 a tums last night and today till the script. is done, and he looks alittle better. Does anyone know the prognosis on this, anyone have this with their guys, is this just another nail in his coffin? I would appreciate any advice. Even alternative calcium ideas or places to purchase. I think the vet said this calcium could run $120.00 a month. I think that price is a extreme for calcium.
Thanks Tracey
