He continues to do well. The urinalysis can become confusing. Vet said there was a very small trace of blood but then when one of the vet techs called yesterday to check up on JB, I questioned the study a little further (because vet mentioned possibility of early incontinence). She said yes, there was a trace of blood "AND ALSO SLIGHT PROTEIN". Now when I heard that, it concerned me. Then the vet tech told me that when there is blood in the urine, protein levels also go up slightly because it is reading the blood cells at the same time.
So as of right now, he is doing well. Vet ruled out stones because there were no signs of crystals or sediment in the sample. I guess the only way to know is to wait it out. If there is a stone, only way is an ultrasound and that is way outta my price range.
