You did not say whether your vet prescribed pain medication for this dog, but I would be concerned. My dog had pancreatitis and did ok at home on subcutaneous fluids but as the night progressed he was in increased pain and my vet had to call in tramadol. After that experience, even though my dog recovered, I would not manage at home. I would hospitalize as LadyJane said. I have done it both ways - hospital and home - and my dog recovered faster and was safer in the hospital.
