Welcome to YT. Sorry to hear about Prince. My Cali had 2 bouts of HGE. The first was worse as the ER vet didn't catch it just treated her with medicine for the diarrhea. I took her to her regular vet the next day when she seemed worse. They kept her and gave her IV medicines and fluids. Then for a few days I would take her to the vet during the day for treatment and then take her home at night. She had another bout a couple of months later and I caught it very early and she was given medicine and sub q fluids and was much better 2 days later. The key is to catch it as soon as possible and get
treatment started. As KJC said above they need to do the PCV test.
I hope Prince makes a speedy recovery.
