Animal Smiley 049 Punkin's Progress

I did take her to the vet the first time all the puking and pooping blood happened...they did tons of tests on her...and everything came back
negative....they took an xray of her belly and her intestines were
swollen.....I called the doctor early in the morning and he said
since I finished the meds...she should be doing better but to give
her 5mg of pepcid in the morning and 5 at night...also he wanted
me to give her 5ml of pepto bismo... same morning and night....
she is doing very well... she is very playful and has been running
around..I have been giving her a plain diet of chicken..and turkey
the vet also told me that it was ok for her to eat that...but she
needed a multi vitamin like Pet tab.... I have also tried TONS of
dogfoods... and even dog crunchies.... she will not eat them...
I have tried Nutro....and a bunch of others...someone recently
told me to try Nuveen? i think its called.... anyways, I have to call
the vet in the morning... I am going to ask him about her pancreas..
when they took all the tests they said her blood levels were all normal...
but I will still ask....Also, if something was really bad I would not hestitate
to take her to the emergency vet.... the night I brought her to the vet
he wanted her to stay...but I asked if he had someone that stays with
the animals overnight he told me he did not...I decided to take her home
with me cause she was very alert...and energetic... he gave me all the emergency numbers and if something had gone wrong I would have brought her to the animal hospital right away...Did I learn my lesson? BIG TIME... I would never want to do something purposely to hurt Punkin...she is the most precious thing to me..anyways, I will update you on her progress tomorrow.....
