Thank you so much for the well wishes. Daisy finally had an episode while the were watching so they could see it for themselves. They decided to take xrays. Basically her belly is over full and her intestines are very full. The muscle in her stomach is not strong enough at this time to push the food through the digestive system quickly. The backup has caused her to have the convulsions/gagging episodes. She left a very large present for them tonight which is a good sign. They want her to go to can food for a while (close to two months) and then ween her to hard food. They also said that they found a heart murmur which should go away as she gets older but her vet will need to keep an eye on it.
This all helps other things make sense. I believe this is the reason she doesn't sleep restfully and why her belly is so tight even though she has been dewormed. They did say that the gagging and throwing up could have lead to her taking in fluids in her lungs (I think they called it aspirating) and could have caused a whole new set of issues. |
