My girl is home now but the Vet wasn't happy about it. He wanted a few more days on IV but it's already $1620. I love my dog but I also like paying my mortgage.

He said the tests show 50% improvement to what they were when she came in. I have the lab sheets but I can't understand it. But her White Blood Cell before was normal at 8.24 but today it was 28.83 which is double the normal and makes him think she has a bacterial infection and not something she ate. My wife gave her a bath and said a yellow substance was covered on her.

We were told to only feed her at night (no dry food as it will dehydrate her) and water can stay out. My wife got some canned food they recommended. Here's the meds we have.

Baytril 22.7, 14 pills
Cerenia 16mg, 4 pills
Denamarin 90mg, 21 pills

If she isn't improving I will take her to another vet and one that is cheaper, if there is such a thing. On her initial tests her Cholesterol was 613 which is double and probably from us giving her people food. Which we will completely cut out.
