Moose takes Epakitin (phospours binder) with every meal and Azydol (probiotic) twice a day.
We tried switching his food to a Renal/kidney RX diet. He would not eat it at all. He went from 19 plus lbs down to 14 lbs. He is now back to 15.5. He
is eating "primal raw" diet. His labs are much much better and stable!! Plus he is back to his ol self!
Kidney disease is a roller coaster ride. Good and bad days. If you are on Facebook, there are several really good informative canine kidney disease support groups. You should check them out.
I know how you feel, I will keep you and your fury in my thoughts and prayers.  |
Thank you for your response. I checked out your post. I am curious what Moose's Lab results were? I see the thumbnail, but can not get it to open.
Molly's BUN is 131, Creatine is 4.3, Phosphorus is 15.9 but her albumin is only 1.8. Vet said she is in a very precarious situation.
She has been in the hospital on intensive IV fluids for almost 36 hours with NO CHANGE in her blood levels. :-(
I am not sure what to do. Doesn't seem right or fair to keep up with the intensive treatments and such if it is not working. Plus she gets so depressed when she is away from us. Maybe we should bring her home for supportive care. ??? I just don't know.
:-(
Please let me know what Moose's levels were... I am looking for a shred of hope here.
Thank you!!
Kim
