PLUS given this repetitive number Dr Jack is not so worried that somehow the lab screwed up Magic's and Razz's results, on the first full blood panel. He is not so worried now about Magic's really wonky first blood panel, as the specific full liver panel came back clean as a whistle. What a relief, I just knew he was really concerned about Magic, (without saying so in so many words), and now I can rest a bit easier. We still have and per his recommendation another draw for Magic in 2/3 months plus repeat urinalysis ( protein in urine, very high PH,), but at least we can give some diet changes a chance to work. Diet changes for Magic, no raw veggies, and add 1500 Vit c's per day in his diet.

Zoey gets her second wkly treatment of Heartguard tomorrow and seems to be doing just fine; she is still in heat, and driving our boys crazy but that's normal.lol We have only been taking her out very briefly for a pee n poo, and try to make sure it is at non mosquitoe times. Ie mid day here. If Dave is home early enough he will walk her, as I will not walk a female in heat; too risky for me; even though it is likely most male dogs are neutered around here, I don't want to take the chance of not being able to discourage a big dog who is intent on becoming her swain.

I am waiting for the exterminator to come for the "raccoons" allegedly in the attic, and oh yes I'm still without a car. Apparently something broke in my heater block and it will be at least another $1K to fix it. So I may get the car tomorrow. Sigh

I'm very happy to read this update ! Sending good thoughts your way for health and healing.
