Hey Everyone.
Today I took Paisley in for her long awaited and highly dreaded spay appointment. Paisley was scheduled to have her pre-op blood work done this morning and they said they would give me a call when everything was done. I got a call around lunch time saying that they wouldn't be able to spay her and they would explain in person. The vet told me that Paisley's clotting test had abnormal results. He explained that they ran the test twice. The first time they ran the test one number was normal and the other one was slightly out of normal range, so he had them run the test again and the second time both numbers were out of range. He said he didn't want to take any chances and wanted to investigate further. He recommended completing a liver function test or bile acid (he used both names so not sure which test it is) but basically she has to fast overnight and they will take blood initially and then feed her and take more blood. He said if that is normal Paisley will have to go see a specialist?
Has anyone else experienced this or something similar? I'm happy that they aren't rushing anything and are concerned for her. I just worry that we won't find an answer for this and it will prevent her from getting spayed, which is something that is important to me.
<3 Daylyn and Paisley
