Kidney disease is not a good diagnosis, but it seems you have it managed quite well with diet etc having caught it early. Hoping she does not have many bad days.
My previous baby had kidney disease, but unfortunately we did not catch it early enough to treat. One does learn a lot about kidneys and their (dis) function! |
Actually, her kidney issues according to our vet is pretty advanced and for this reason, he is worried about doing any eye operation. This happened in December for us and I thought of posting here to get some advice but things happened so fast that I didnt have any time...I took her to the emergency room in the morning around 3 am because her stool was full of blood...I did not have any dog before so this was all new to me....Immediately, the doctors in the vet hospital diagnosed it to be related to kidney...She was on IV for around 8 hrs and then I transferred her to our vet where she was for about a week..She was on fluids and gradually recovered with no vomiting and diarrhoea...
Since then, we have completed avoided canned chicken (she used to love it) and have avoided any food with more salt, phosporous etc...the problem we have with her is that she is very picky with her food..most of the times, we just wanted her to eat and would give her the food she loves but she usually
vomits them after few hours....So, after a lot of trial and error we have figured out the food which she can eat and also her stool is good and everything...
She has actually been doing better for the last month and eating well..Everyday we just pray that she eats the food that is also good for her health also...
