Lipase - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
Totally understand that, but I'm saying my gut tells me that it was more than gas because it lasted a few days. However, it doesn't really matter as long as she is better. :) Ellies lipase stays high also. |

Then I could have added to it, bc during the week, I did go a little over board on the Romaine Lettuce with them, and I gave them some of my green apple (no skin). And I started the VSL again... I really just don't know :( what did it...but YES she was in EXTREME discomfort and pain, it still blows my mind |

And if she did get extra cheese, it may have just been too rich? I see lots of people giving cheese, but when it comes to anything except cottage, I have to wonder if it's too just too rich. Ellie had a tiny piece of parmesan (like a shred or two) before and spit/threw it up. She doen't seem to be able to handle it. So I'd just stick to what is in the recipe... The apple could cause upset, but I thought she was used to that. |
Her recipe calls for Cottage Cheese (I use the 1% and no sodium added), and some Low Fat Shreded Colby Cheese (I use the Sargento Reduced Fat Shredded Colby-Jack Cheese). They get Fuiji Apples in the morning, but on Tues I was eating a Green Apple for dinner and was giving them some, plus a little extra Romaine. So maybe hubby was giving her a little too much cheese over the weekend, and then I topped it off with the extra Green Apple and Romaine. Thanks for listening... If it happens again, I will ask for the Spec cPL test ;) |

I agree spec cpli and snap inhouse way faster for results so I will always request that vs trusting lipase and amylase from what I have seen with all i went through with dex. I just do not think amylase and lipase are real accurate for pancreatitis. That is interesting that ellie may is also high on lipase on blood work like my two hmmm interesting when did you start the vsl? |

I have no way of knowing, because I don't know how sensitive Roxy is. Having had two yorkies that had issues with their stomachs some time during their lifetimes, I know how painful it can be. I wonder if Roxy had anxiety with you being away. That stress could have added to an already upset stomach. It sounds like more than gas to me, but the gas alone is painful and can last for a few days. The pain you described sounds more than gas, though. I would probably try baby gas-x if you think she is having trouble with her stomach or 1/4 tablet of the adult mint pill. That was the dose my veterinarian suggested I give Ashley. I also gave her 1/4 tablet of Pepcid when her stomach was upset. My veterinarian is very careful with medication, so I don't think they will harm Roxy in any way if you need to give them to her. These might make her more comfortable until you can take her to the doctor. An injection of Pepcid is often given when there is an upset stomach when a dog is ill. Good luck with Roxy. I hope she is back to herself soon. |
At the vet now, waiting for spec cpl results. Gave her some sucralfare and will give her famotidine at home. Her liapase was 725 not too out of range. Last year it was 590 this vet thinks it's arthritis from her lp and suggests metcamp, but I am holding off to see if this is stomach/gas, etc any thoughts? |

is she still not feeling well if not I am not sure again this is gas as this has been a while now :( sulcrulfate is pepto bismal for dogs as it does not have the aspirin in it. FAmotidine is good to control stomach acids. dex was given both when he had pancreatitis |
M has anti immflam in it. T doesn\'t it only is a pain killer, so vet said would mask it... She has been perfect, until this morning, she was stiff, wobbly, soft walking around. Same as I saw her walk last week. Tj wanted to play with her and she would try to play back, but she wasn\'t normal. An hour later she pooped and her stiff wooble walk got 50% better, but I could see she was still bothered, so I got ready quick and here we are at the vet again |
Poor you...I know this is hard... |
