With blood work and xrays the vet was unable to diagnose her. She seemed to be better so she was sent home on an antibiotic. Over the weekend her activity was limited at best. Yesterday she was again very weak and shaky. She is not vomiting but is very inactive, very weak. I did get her to eat and drink today but she is just not the Nikki that she was a week ago. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I took my yorkie 9yr to vet on Friday because his belly was swollen....they ran blood work and said he has low protein and low sugar and was dehydrated . When they ran a urine test it should some sugar but that I need to bring him for ultrasound on Monday. He has pink gums and is still acting normal just has a big belly he did weigh 3.5 pounds . They are telling me it looks like liver cancer . Has anyone had any experience with this problem?
