I am so very sorry for your loss of Promise. What a horrible thing to watch your baby go through.
As of right now, Shelby-Dale's new vet has put him on antibiotics (today marks the 14 days) for a few weeks. These are for a bad fungal infection he had on his tummy. As for the throwing up issues, she is convinced that he has acid reflux and has put him on pepcid ac and some powdered probiotics. She didn't feel that the Trifexis was the issue and I'm still on alert and on the fence about it.
She said go give the meds 2 weeks and if he is still having issues, to bring him back. He has acted a LOT better lately. However, he threw up on Saturday when we had run out of Pepcid AC so I figured that was why. But, he threw up again on Monday. He had all his meds that day. Again, today is day 14. If he throws up again, I'll be going back to do more xrays and an ultrasound.
So, basically, I thought he was better but now I'm still not so sure. He isn't on Trifexis anymore, but if it did cause damage...that damage is most likely still there messing with him. His energy is definitely back to normal though and his other issues (leg and tummy/fungus issues) are better.
His poop is and always has been fine. I just want him not to throw up. It has to be miserable for him. I will post back here if/when I find out more.
Again, I am so sorry for your loss. Prayers for your healing.
