Ok good to know, cause at emerg, they said he was like a .5 out of a possible 4, on some sort of test. 0 being perfect.... So they said the antibiotics of the rest of the bacterial infection may have killed that off too. My real vet hasn't seen him since this whole incident. They did however receive the report from emerg. I'll keep any eye on him, I've been recording all vomits, bowel movements, and feedings, I'll start recording pee times too, to see if there are any irregularities.

Also another question, if I'm feeding hamburger and rice, is it ok to feed him medium or lean instead of extra lean. I sent my boyfriend the other day to buy his hamburger and told him to buy the best quality he could cause I didn't have time to think or risk it (that was surgery day for me), but I'm working on a student budget, I have no problem keeping him on a bland diet and cooking for him but can't really afford to buy him better quality hamburger than i eat for myself (especially when I have 3 packages of medium already in my freezer).

I'm probably over analyzing things, but I want him better like yesterday... so now I'm evaluating everything with a fine tooth comb.
