She was in quite aq bit of pain; it's since eased thank heavens. She's not showing distress, but is very, very, hungry. I agree her intestines WERE inflamed, but unfortunately, the dx for that came on the tail end, so I don't think it's the issue any longer. Just what my gut says. I was told to give the those small meals every 6-8 hours. I will do so again, but I want her to get some nutrients in her and then ease it up to maybe 1/8 of a cup. I was given permission just a bit ago to do every 3-4 hours, so that's a huge relief. Her pain let up the second her bowels were relieved, and her whining is now gone. Her problem is now she's just so dang tired and hungry. she's curled up in bliss on my husband's chest, and the shivering stopped about 15 minutes after he meal and the karo syrup.
I'm looking now at your PM.
P.S. I did get a second opinion, lol. I'm not laughing because it's funny. I'm just so tired and thankful that my girl seems to be on the mend.
