Thanks so much for your kind words. To answer the questions... The 3rd vet we went to kind of hinted at a liver shunt and he did blood work which he said was OK so he never mentioned it again. If there's a specific test for that I am pretty positive he didn't do it. I actually paid the last vet we saw $105 for blood work and she called me today and told me he's fine. But I don't know what she tested him for so I don't know what to think. And I have the same problem because I think it's his nerves but when we walk in a vet's office he suddenly is more alert and attentive. So when I say how sick he's been they look at me with a "yeah right" look on their faces. One vet actually said "well he doesn't look like he's gonna die tonight so let's send him home" I was shocked and devastated. He's never had a bile acid test. But it is a good idea. And you are right & this is the part I'm most sad about. Sometimes it's like I'm looking at a different dog and I breakdown. I need my Charlie back. |
