Just left Mylee at the Vet-Possible obstruction

[TxVicki]

Praying that all is going well with after her surgery yesterday. Praying she is back home soon.

I was not implying that your vet was incompetent...sorry if it came off that way.
If anything, I was the one to blame for letting Momo suffer for a whole week. I couldn't make up my mind, whether to go in for exploratory surgery & whenever I did make up my mind, the vet suggested other meds they can try.
I guess the reason I told my story is to 'not delay surgery', if there's any obstruction.

Your vet did the right thing, to go in & get things moving...praying for Mylee & hoping for good news!

Any word today how Mylee is doing?

Aw, Jenny, I don't think anyone thought that at all from you posts. Looking back at mine, I can see how my words could be misconstrued by someone who didn't know me personally as we use "roll of the dice" as a common term around here to say there's more than one way to go and we took what seemed like the less problematic one but I thought I showed agreement vs. questioning the vet's actions in this case by the rest of my post. Still, in a few words, it's hard to make yourself clear as you thought you were being.

Fingers & toes crossed and still praying Mylee comes home soon!

Praying everything is good with Mylee and you.

I'm all good with everyone here, I promise!! I very very much appreciate all the well wishes and support of any kind, because we all understand how stressful it is when one of our pups is sick. I do have a lot of confidence in my vet/clinic, but I'm still waiting to hear. I'm disappointed I have not heard anything. This is just not like them. My vet was out for a couple hours but should be back by now. I was waiting to post thinking I'd have an answer by now. So, I'm hoping once I post this I'll get that call to come get her.

Well, she has to stay another day. She's still vomiting. I have no idea what she could possibly have gotten in to. What ever was hanging up in her gut has moved through though and is in her colon and the vet feels good about that, but they won't let her come home until she stops vomiting.

You poor thing, I can imagine this delay is really stressing you out. Poor little Mylee, so sorry she still has an upset tummy. The good news is that the solid matter that caused the obstruction is in the colon and on the way out. It could be that what she swallowed was toxic and some effects of its absorption still remain. Now the material is in the colon and will soon be gone, I am sure she will get well very soon as whatever it was is expelled or processed. So try not to worry, she is in good hands and they will do what is needed to make her feel well again. Prayers for you and Mylee, and hoping you get good news soon.

Poor little Mylee! I'm hoping this is all over soon and she can go home with you where she belongs!

Dottiesyrky might be right and it's the toxins or whatever in the foreign body that is still causing her trouble as it passes out. But just her GI track's reaction to the presence of the FB in it can often make a dog vomit and give them an underlying gastroenteritis for a few days as the gut reacts. Your poor Mylee. I know she will be glad to get this mess out of her and get back to her life. I pray that happens very soon.

Don't worry about the vet's office - they must may be very, very busy. Friday nights can be so hectic for them as people who have put off taking their sick or injured dogs into the vet all week panic before the weekend and "rush" their dogs into the vet after work when they get home on Friday afternoon and evening. I'll bet your hear soon.

I'm sorry that Mylee couldn't come home tonight. We are praying for her to get better. It's great news that it has passed into her colon. I know you are lost without Mylee, and I feel so bad for both of you. I will anxiously await for the news that she is back home in your arms.

[Maximo]

I am sorry to hear she has to spend another night at the vet. Praying Mylee will be ready to come home tomorrow and that she will recover quickly.
