| Sick Pup - bloody stool I just got back with my little Benji from the vet. She had very bloody diarrhea . Last week she spent three nights at the vets for HGE. I thought she was better. Today the vet repeated all her blood work and it was all back to normal. He said there was a lot of mucus and blood in her stool and so he thought it was a bacterial infection in her lower something. He gave her sub something fluids and an anti biotic also a shot for her stomach. He doesn't know what's causing it. Not anything she ate as I have been with her 24/7 since the HGE scare. I'm so afraid. Has anyone ever heard of red bloody stool with no reason? |

| The vet said he had no idea because all her blood work came back normal. He is treating it as inflammation . She is resting right next to me in bed but I can hear her stomach gurgurling. I'm praying it was a one time episode. I will be up all night watching her. She is such a little ray of sunshine. She's always happy. I'm retired and live alone most of the time so we are together every waking and sleeping moment. The vet did say he wanted me to have her get an ultra sound when I get back to the states next week. He wants to make sure there are no underlying causes. I don't know what that means but I don't want to think about it or I will go crazy. Thanks for your thoughts and I will post tomorrow after the night gos by. |

| That's what the vet said an inflamed intestine. Her HCT was back to 47% down from 65% when she was diagnosed with HGE. Do you think it was the HGE that gave her an inflamed intestine? I just want to know she will be ok. I'm so scared. |

| Thank you so much for moving this post as I know nothing about computers or how to maneuver around them. I'm not the nurse lady. Lately I live at the vet. Thank God I do trust him. Prayers too. |

Donating YT 30K Club Member | Hoping Benji is doing better. My Cali has colitis and can get mucousy bloody stools when stressed. She also had 2 bouts of HGE.
