Hello all,
Today we got very grave news from the cardiologist. Although her pneumonia is completely cleared up, and he sees no more evidence of this, (he attributes this to good ABX-but I know different) the results of the echo were devastating.
She has severe pulmonary hypertension on the right side, so much so that he gives her less than a year to live. He has stopped the lasix and the ABX. I was absolutely devastated. He says he doesn't know why she has it, where she got it from, but it is fatal. He is putting her on viagra, of all things, which he says can help to lower the blood pressure. I will talk to my holistic Vet. But right now, I am exhausted, and extremely depressed. I need to go cry myself to sleep.
