Jazmyne isn't eating but playful? Jazmyne is just over 14 years old. She hasn't eaten in a few days, she tries a little then throws up a few hours later. I've tried to feed her rice, beef, chicken, and some food from the vet for dogs that won't eat. She isn't lethargic. She is playing and goes for 3 long walks everyday. She is sleeping fine, snoring away. She had pulled a muscle in her back a few weeks ago and I'm wondering if it's still lingering. The vet did urine tests and everything was clear. She is going back for blood tests today. My parents are watching her while I'm at work and they think she is depressed. Has anyone seen anything like this? |
Blood work came back. Her liver is in trouble. They are doing x-rays tomorrow. It could be pancreatitis or hepatitis or just an infection. She goes on iv for days to see if her levels go down. If they do then she gets antibiotics. If not I don't know what I do next. She did say she's not in pain, just not feeling great. |
I am so sorry that your little one is not feeling well. I will be keeping her in my thoughts, and hoping for a full recovery. (((hugs))) |
I’m so sorry. It’s so hard when our older babies are sick. Please keep us updated. I will keep both of y’all in my prayers. |
The urine tests came back clean. So that's a bonus. Liver can repair itself. Kindeys, not so much. She's a tough one. Just sad that she's not eating. But the iv will get her fed. |
Keeping little Jazmyne in my thoughts and prayers :love: |
I meant to say I hope the liver can repair itself. |
The vet did xrays this morning. No abnormalities or growths. Liver is in isn't great and she's constipated. She's been on antibiotics and iv all day. They are sending her home tonight and she goes back for iv tomorrow all day. The outlook is hopeful but not out of the water yet. Jaundice hasn't quite set in. We caught it early enough that the vet said she might beat this. Only time will tell. They are pretty sure it's pancreatitis. Has anyone dealt with this and what to expect going forward? |
The vet decided that Jazzy was to goto the 24 hour clinic. Her liver is in really bad shape. No jaundice though. They said her skin was a little coloured this morning but was much better tonight. Her gums and eyes are good. They have her on iv, Sam-e, antibiotics, pain killers, and a sedative. She’s not in pain though. I’m preparing for the worst but hoping for the best. She’s staying there until Sunday to flush her system. |
Thank you for the update. It's so hard to stay positive at times like this. Stay strong, you and Jazmyne are in my thoughts and prayers (((hugs))). |
Thank you! I just got off the phone with the vet. Since she's been there, she's more lively and is content. The vet said her color is great and she's just watching the vets work. Hoping! |
Hope thing continue to improve! 🙏 |
The vet called this morning. Her color is back to normal. At least that's one positive. She's watching the vets work and doesn't seem uncomfortable, just a little cold, so they gave her a heated wrap. They gave her an appetite inducer to see if she will start eating. They are going to leave her on iv until tomorrow. Then a full blood work will be done. If her levels don't go down but she starts eating, the vet said to take her home and let her live her life out. If she won't eat and her levels won't go down, I'll have to euthanize. If her levels come down, then there's a chance the liver can start repairing itself. Either way she is coming home tomorrow for a while. So all I can do is give her love and be happy for all the great times she has given me. |
Praying Jazmyne pulls through this and you get a few more years to love, pamper and spoil her, these seniors are so very precious. Thank you so much for this update |
