Yes, we've been to Gulf Coast. I thought Woodie was doing pretty good until three or four days ago. He started acting like he wasn't feeling really well. Friday morning, he vomited again, and I thought, here we go again. :-(
Blood work was scheduled for Friday morning already, so we took him in, only to find out that now he has way too much fat in his system, and the worst news was,,,,,,his calcium level is back up.Everyone that has seen Woodie, or that knows about what all we've been through so far, say that the elevated calcium is either a parathyroid problem, or cancer! The high calcium seems to have something to do with the choppy breathing too. Next week, Gulf Coast will do a PTH test, and we'll go from there. We need to do something for my little buddy. He's been poked, prodded, medicated, tested, made to lay on the couch for 5-6 hours a day with an fluid IV in his little arms for a week,,,,,,,,,and on and on and on. He's a little trooper, but it's got to be wearing on him, as I know it is me!
