Don't ever let someone tell you that you are neurotic because you care about your pup! Try to relax ... I know that is easier said than done, but unless your pup is really really sick, this is something that can wait.
Here is a great brochure about liver shunts and MVD. It tells all about the tests to diagnose these things. http://www.vet.utk.edu/clinical/sacs...2013-04-10.pdf |
Lots. Episodes of her freaking out and hiding from me after eating- me. She wont let me out of her sight ever, so it was always something I couldn't understand. Suddenly screaming out if touched in a certain area, and it wouldn't repeat afterwards until days passed. Hair thinning in some areas and breaking off- then g rowing back. She's not hyper in the least. She loves playing and gets tired and has to lay down. So many bouts of GI upsets. Occasional runny poop. Lots of straining to poop. Hiding under the bed after eating. Moaning in pain after eating- about twice a week. Lower energy after walks, increasingly getting worse as the weeks go on. Napping a lot, but not lethagic, but napping a lot. Eating so quickly that I get scared, but then her poor tummy gurgles worse that way- worse than usual, and it ALWAYS gurgles after eating. REFUSING to drink liquids until she can't stand it any more, and then having darker than I'm comfy with urine, and that's after being properly hydrated. I have more symptoms, but my floaters get worse at night, and right now the screen swimming in floaters to the point where I can't see the screen well enough.
