Thank you. That is a great suggestion.
Throughout her life she has had intermittent bouts of diarrhea and vomit and even more frequent urinary issues. Over a year ago her father and companion died suddenly and tragically (botched liver shunt surgery).
For my surviving dog, after this, symptoms worsened. Then after treating with Clamavox, she was fine for six months and recently worse spend again. She'd been through batteries of tests before and again now. This is the first time a doctor indicated positive for pancreatitis and I'm going to ask for details tomorrow about how acute/severe it is. The fact that she also has these chronic yet intermittent urinary issues makes me wonder if we got it right.
Symptoms have typically included frequent or too infrequent ruination, frequent drinking, seeming discomfort or difficulty urinating, blood at times. Her tests shoe increased protein levels this time, while other times I recall high white blood cell counts. I need the facts still as this is all fresh. I'm concerned about Kidney disease as a possibility. In case you are wondering she's had sonograms before which show not much and no stones. She does have high alkaline phosphatase levels.
If any if this rings any bells, I'd appreciate any insight. |
