 pancreatitis or PLE
My little dog had ongoing issues with Protein Losing Enteropathy.. which mimics pancreatitis.. she had to receive steroid (prednisone) for years.. first by pill then thru injection. it would come and go and when she was ill she was really uncomfortable.. she would become lethargic, refuse to eat and had difficulty with her stools. I had her to a terrific vet and she was a tramadol at times for pain... Most dogs can't survive that long but mine was medicated enough to live another 6 years.. ask vet to check for PLE.. it less common. |
