Cry Roxy has both Struvite & Calcium Oxalate crystals in her urine

I just can't believe it

Sunday night she started to pee with blood in it. Started around 5:30pm and lasted until her last pee around 10pm.

Got up Monday morning, had her pee on the plastic side of the wee wee pad and brought her into the Vet. They did an ultra sound of her bladder and saw a bunch of "stuff" floating around in her bladder.

Vet just called. No white blood cells in her urine, meaning no infection, but doesn't mean 100% no infection. She has Struvite & Calcium Oxalate crystals in her urine. She has blood in her urine (trama from stone or stones).

Her pH is 6.0 - so he feels that her diet is not the cause. He feels it's genetic (along with her MVD).

She is on Clavamox for 10 days. Then we will retest her urine, do another u/s of her bladder and also an xray of her bladder to see if there are any stones

...I don't even know where to begin...

Anyone have experience or input? She is 6 years old and has MVD. We have tested her urine numerious times, never seen crystals, so I never really paid attention to posts about them, and now here I am, right in the middle of it
