results so i am pretty sure that i got positive news today. zowi's urinalysis results came back normal! (other than trace amounts of blood and protein) the dr said in order to be concerned there would need to be around a count of 20, but zowi only has 2. thats the good news... but i am still worried.
so i asked what would possibly be causing the trace amounts of blood and protein??? she said that kidney problems can go undetected until they have lost most of their function. she also said that her urine has been very diluted so that could be early signs of cushings and to keep an eye on it to see if it continues to be clear.
i can't see why zowi would pee in the middle of my kitchen floor right in front of me (this has happened 3 times in the past week) if she wasn't trying to tell me something.
the dr said the next step is to do an ultrasound to rule out the possibility of any masses. she said that she would not expect to find any though. our regular vet is on vacation as of friday, i wish i had her opinion. but as of right now we are planning on going ahead with the ultrasound asap.
thanks so much everyone for your prayers and support on here. we greatly appreciate it! hugs to you all! |
