Oh, your Cali is precious. I am so sorry...it is so hard when our babies age and start having medical issues. CHF is very serious but can be treated sometimes successfully for longer periods of time depending on the severity and response to medications. It is treated with diuretics and sometimes other cardiac meds.
The problem with CHF comes with increased use of diuretics causing renal failure so the dosage is important. Once the kidneys start to go it becomes increasingly hard to maintain a balance.
If you have access, you might want to consult with a cardiologist. |
