 unknown illness
our little luci who is 4 is having a really bad year. this is the third time she has had the following symptoms:
she can barlely walk
yelps when you touch her
stand in a hunched position
wont eat or drink
it happened once when she was about 2, but passed in a few days, i think they gave her an anti-inflammatory, they thought she may have hurt her hip the way she hunches over when this occurs
it happened in again jan, took her to emergency, they did about 4 thousand dollars in tests, they hydrated her and gave her pain meds, and somehow it passed, they did not find anything wrong
in jun happened again, took her to emergency, they thought she might have an obstruction in ther small intestine, they did major surgery and found nothing, 6 thousand more dollars
she has been on a special food since she has been home 3 weeks, and she has it again. she was absolutley fine yesterday, and in the afternoon took a nap and woke up with these same symptoms.
the thing that gets me is they dont actually find anything in the hospital but the symptons do pass
If anyone has any info that may help us please let me know, she is such a sweet dog and hate seeing her go through this.
thanks and if anyone needs more info i will provide them. |
