Sunny D was released Monday in the afternoon because I was not going to be able to get him on Tuesday.
I apologize for not doing updates sooner, but my life has been a bit chaotic lately. My Teddy Bear now has pancreatitis and is going daily for fluids.
Anyway....Sunny D is doing fairly well. He has 11 different meds!!!! And, tube feedings every 4 - 6 hours...so I am quite busy.
Today, I opened his mouth to check his tongue and it looks like the tip is getting ready to fall off.
The necrotic area now is about an inch so I am assuming he will lose all of that.
He is drooling quite a bit and when he drinks water, he is a total mess. I guess in time he will get used to life without it. Poor guy.
I think it is getting less painful though because he did eat a couple of pieces of a sweet potato. He tried to eat a slightly crunchy treat, but that was hard for him. He has not eaten since this all started almost 2 weeks ago. I think once the tongue issue is resolved he will be eating again.
At least he seems happy...he comes to me and wags his tail and sleeps with all of us in bed.
He seems so much better now...and, as I said in another post, his labs are now pretty good. He will return to the specialist on Tuesday, 2/12.
