Hi guys, I just got back from the vet. She did a COMPLETE workup, bloodwork, x-rays, another thorough mouth exam. Nothing. Everything is completely normal. On paper, she looks perfectly healthy. They gave her another fluid injection, more Pepcid and told me to give her a bland diet or plain baby food for awhile. She said that if anything was wrong with her tongue, gums, etc., they would be swollen. I again told her about the opening the mouth over and over and kind of sticking out her neck and making the noise. And she is eating very gingerly, like SOMETHING hurts. The vet is at a total loss and said they could knock her out and scope her to see if something is stuck, but that would just irritate her even more. I have to call her tomorrow and let her know how Beanie is. She also said she could send me to someone one else to see if they had any ideas.
I talked to the breeder a couple of times today and she said that maybe Beanie DOES have some kind of cut or something and it is irritating her. I mean, there is nothing else I can DO. Oh, they also did another Lyme test on her and that was negative. EVERYTHING is negative, yet something is freakin wrong. The vet said her stinky breath might be that her stomach is irritated and it is making her breath stink.
I am so upset, I mean I am really glad that nothing showed up like her kidneys, etc., but I still don't have any answers as to what is wrong with my baby. I feel like a big baby myself over this dog.
Anyway, I guess I just have to wait it out and see if she gets better, maybe whatever is bothering her WILL get better and this will all be a really bad memory!! |
