 Update-- So it wasn't hypoglycemia
Mia was better yesterday, but today she did recover completely. She continued to eat and drink. We also gave her some more nutrical, however around noon she was still lethargic. She also had diarrhea right before noon. We took her to the vet this afternoon, they did some blood tests and her red blood cell count came low. Her fecal exam had a bunch of larvas also. The vet thinks it is either hookworms or liver shunt. She said they cannot tell yet because the parasites they found are somehow abnormal and the low red blood cell count could be an indication of parasites or liver shunt. They are consulting parasitologists. Mia was given some medicine in case it is hookworms and she seems to be a little better. We are going to give her the parasite medicine for the next two days. If she doesn't seem to be better tomorrow afternoon, they will investigate further.
Our poor baby. I really hope its only parasites and that she will be better as soon as possible. Also, I have decided to buy pet insurance right away. |
