Yes, she did blood work yesterday and an xray and everything came back in the normal range except for he was starting to show signs of being dehydrated, his level was just below the normal line and his sugar was elevated some but she said that, that was because of him being on the predisone (which we have stopped for now) and because he is in pain. His xray showed that he has a belly full of gas but everything else looked fine.
I have been in touch with the vet tech that works hand in hand with Tuckers normal vet, she has been over here a few times to check on him and agrees with everything that the other vet has said, other than she thinks they should of given him some subq's and some pepcid. I will take him back to my regular vets if he doesnt continue to show signs of improvement.
