Got the results back from the vet today. For the most part everything looks good and normal. The urine test was good - concentrated and no indication of any kidney issues. The blood work was also all spot on with the exception of the new SDMA (kidney disease) test. Rocky's number was 15 which should be at 14 - so one point high. They said it really was nothing to be concerned with at this point as he is still a young dog and the urine test was good.
Tomorrow I have a one hour long consult with a new vet that specializes in skin conditions - not a vet derm, but the next best thing I have locally. Depending on how tomorrow turns out, I will most likely be taking an 8 hour drive down into Montana to a vet derm and hoping to get my hands on some Apoquel. The journey continues... |
