Well I can't be certain, but I'm afraid the dog food has once again set off her stomach because she is not interested in eating tonight again and will not drink water.
I have given her a little pedialyte by syringe because she won't even take plain water that way.
She is agitated and shivering again when awake. The distressed breathing has not really stopped since early this afternoon about an hour or more after her pentoxifylline dose.
Called the vet to check in and they said to withhold the med tonight and begin again in the morning if she is better, but if she is not she needs to return to the vets.
She has seen so many different doctors in the span of almost three weeks now that I have to wonder if any of them have a handle on this. I need to get hold of the vet who referred her to the internist but he is still out of town.
The food they gave me was not supposed to have animal protein in it, but it has chicken liver and fat in the ingredients and I'm pretty sure she can't tolerate chicken.
Outside of getting allergy testing at this point I don't see a proper way forward.
I don't mind continuing the meds if they are going to help, but she is not going to live very long without food and water.
I am confused, despairing and very, very angry.
