this is a side effect of tylenol or acteminophen poisoning. i used to work in the ER and someeonee tried to kill themselves with that once and they nearly did.

PLEASE, everyone that owns a pet or has children SHOULD HAVE EMERGENCY NUMBERS posted by their phone just for these emergency occasions.

The computer isn't the place to post and WAIT for somoeone to help.
CALL YOUR EMERGENCY NUMBERS ASAP.

I'm sorry I had to post this, but life is at stake. I wouldn't wait, CALL POISON CONTROL or GO to your Emergency Vet as soon as something happens like this.

PLEASE KEEP EMERGENCY NUMBERS AT YOUR PHONE AT ALL TIMES.

I guess my only choice is to call the vet asap in the morning. They open at 8. Straszny is resting now, he looks ok, pretty peaceful. He urinated on my bed again, right in front of me though just a little bit ago...that is NOT him.

At least he doesn't seem to be in pain as of yet...

(by the way, thank you guys SO much for the comments, I am sitting here with him alone and in tears...so thank you)

I wouldn't wait until morning. I would find an emergency vet or animal hospital and take him now. I used to take Mesalamine, and it's a drug that has sulfa in it. He may be having an allergic reaction to that, as many people do. Also, he is probably having periodic cramping in his abdomen which is why he cries. One of the main reasons I had to stop taking this med was because of the cramping it caused me. I really would not wait.

Rae Rae · 09-14-2006, 02:33 PM

I hope her babies doing OK...hopefully she found a 24hr vet!

Joysie · 09-14-2006, 03:39 PM

To all who posted, thank you very much. I haven't had a chance to post all day, it has been very very busy. We got into the vet and he did a blood test, Straszny does have apparent kidney problems. The vet did say that there is no reason to give up hope on him though, he is still eating and drinking, and going to the bathroom. The reason for worry was the excessive urination and thirst. The vet has given him 3 prescriptions, 1 to lower his phosphate levels, another to help any digestive system ulcers that could have appeared, and on to lower his acid levels(digestive system).

I got him to eat some rice and hamburger, about 1/4 of a cup. It is now a waiting game of nursing him, and seeing if he goes up hill or down hill.

on a different note, Yorkie24U, please do not lecture me. I fully realize what you are saying, but do not speak to me as if I did nothing for him. I was doing all that I could, and I did come here for MORE help. You were not here, you do not know how things happened. There is NO emergency vet around, I live in a rural area. The vet said he could come in after he did his early morning "farm chores". If coming online is going to be reprimanded with attitude, then there is no need for a sick & injured forum. I am not disagreeing with what you said, but how you said it. Posts of that manner only discourage help on this site. That is all that I have to say to you. I do not need this.

kalina82 · 09-14-2006, 03:47 PM

glad you got him to a vet and he's now got some meds. hopefully things will go uphill for him and not the other way. good luck! give him some big kisses

SJK1113 · 09-14-2006, 03:49 PM

I'm glad he's been checked by a vet. I hope the meds help him and that he is feeling better soon.

Joysie · 09-14-2006, 03:56 PM
