Thanks everyone for your thoughts and prayers!

I just got home....George has lost weight again. This, coupled with his icky stools, has my vet thinking it could be EPI or SIBO. He did have some bacteria in his stool, so we will continue metronidazole and she is adding Amoxicillin. Tomorrow I am to fast him and take him back for a GI Panel that will be sent to the GI Lab at Texas A&M.

I should add that his appetite is good and he is alert...in no real distress at this point.
