 Abbie is home from vet
He said my little "porker" was doing well and showed no signs of liver shunt. She has gained 3/4 of a lb in a little over 11 days, so he ruled that out preliminarily. He did say that is sounded like a bad case of hypoglycemia, maybe provoked by our extended play outside on Saturday. He didn't think it was the mushroom because she should have had some other symptoms: vomiting, diarrhea, muscle rigidity, etc.
They tested her Blood sugar and it was 80, he said her normal range should be 60-110 give or take. She had eaten just 2 hours before, so I feel like 80 is low when you consider I have also been giving her the honey. The vet thinks that hypoglycemia will be the end diagnosis.
They took a CBC and enzyme panel and I should know the results first thing in the morning.
He told me to give her baby Gerber Chicken in the meantime.
Thanks again everyone, yesterday was one of the longest and most stressful days ever. Thanks for helping me through and sending good thoughts our way. |
