Got the results back from the full panel bloodwork and it's showing his liver levels are quite elevated. The good news is that he is eating and drinking well on his own again... So he is feeling better. The antibiotic that was given was in case of a tick illness which the vet says will still be effective in treating whatever is bothering the liver. He also has to take 2 other meds and then we go back in 2 weeks to retest. He thinks it's caused by rodent feces. Some kind of bacteria on the rodent feces that my boy may have walked in and then licked his paws at some point. It's totally treatable though and we are so thrilled. So now maybe we don't go for our walks anymore??? Between the terrifying tick illnesses and now random fecal diseases... He should maybe live out the rest of his life in a bubble. |
