Hi Ladyjane, thanks very much for asking. Had to leave him at the specialist overnight, as time to pick him up would have been to late (after all the tests being done). This gets stranger and stranger, his CPL was normal!! Rob thinks that it is not pancreatitis (to 90% anyway). His ALP is 4x the ref range, but he is not too concerned about that either, not diabetic, no increased white blood cells, ultrasound OK, pancrea enlarged, liver not symetrical (but normal range), Abdominal is high...(exactly what I have not written down whilst talking to him). He expects it might cushings disease. But lab results will not be back till Monday. Rob is puzzled as well, specially that Ozzie had a nose bleed and a bloated tummy at most times. Funny thing is, he asked on what Ozzie is on, I said, I switched to the Low Fat food (which you can only buy at the vets) and I fed him Chappie before. He said Chappie would do the trick and the vet just said to switch as they earn money out of it. I just have to got to wait now till Monday/Tuesday when the lab results are in. The referrals clinic is really good, so I do trust them a lot. If you would like to have a look at their web-site, its
Dick White Referrals | Centre of Veterinary Excellence and I think you would agree with me, as they are only working with specialists. Glad I am insured, would have cost me £800! But even without insurance I would have done it, as my dogs are my babies!!
Thanks again!
