kjc, the vet did mention doing a PCV, but he recommended we wait based on her current symptoms.. if it continues that is our next step. Hoping it doesn't come to that, I don't want to put her through anything more than necessary - the vet also said it's quite pricey - obviously I would spare no expense to make her well, and if the vet said we need to do it now, I would have said ok. But he honestly did not seem too concerned with the whole thing and truly believes it is just a bug or a parasite, although he was very understanding at how upset I was based on what I saw at home.
She's been through so much in her two and half years.. poor baby has been to the vet more than most 7 year old dogs... she hates it as much as I do  |
Oh no... the test I'm referring to can be done in the vet's office/clinic(inhouse) and with a tiny drop of blood... results in seconds.
It sounds to me that maybe your vet thought you might have been exaggerating on the amount of blood you saw. My own dog had HGE twice so when someone on here describes bloody diarrhea which is more blood than poo, I know what you mean as I've seen it myself. I'm just seeing a red flag bc it sounds like your vet isn't hearing what you said.
With that much blood loss, a small dog can go into shock quickly at any time. If your baby is still not acting right, I am thinking an ER Vet or a second opinion might be an option, most ER Vets can do more in house testing than a regular vet...
Try using hydrogen peroxide on the blood stains on your Mom's rugs and floor...
