Also, all the bloodwork came back and it was all perfect, including the bile test. The ultrasound was actually done by an internist vet and a radiologist with my doctor and the doctors are all in agreement that the mammary glands are just all swollen and hard and that is the issue (back to the false pregnancy theory which was the original diagnosis 2 weeks ago). So - she is on prednosone, an antibiotic and a muscle relaxer (on top of the eye medicine for conjunctivitis) and she seems more comfortable now (of course, she's all drugged up), and the hope is that the mammary glands will go down and she will feel better. It would be wonderful if this is all it is. She was so miserable and I have been so upset seeing her in obvious distress. It's just so hard to believe that her glands being so swollen could cause all this in my little baby (she's 4 lbs). So, time will tell and I will update my post and let you all know how she does in the next day or so. Thanks again for your kind thoughts and prayers  |
I am so glad it doesn't seem to be very serious! Thanks for updating us.
