Dudley's blood work-few concerns?? I got a copy of the blood panel they did. I have a few questions?? First, this was done b/c he was SUPPOSED to have an abcessed tooth removed y-day and didn't b/c of issues with the dental machine (unrelated) He's suppoed to go in Mon or Tue;) Here are a few results that i see: BUN/Creat ratio is 29 should be 4-27 Palete count 469 170-400 monocytes 960 0-840 He has infection going on, would that be why these are elevated? :cool:I'm concerned, b/c that's just me:) Are there other numbers you care to to know any questions i should ask...When the was taken, he was not on a fast and he did vomit earlier that afternoon, oh and he didn't eat his lunch before we brought him?? Any suggestions?? |

PLT is an abbreviation for platelets. The platelets are responsible for sealing any leaks in the blood vessels. When platelet counts are low, spontaneous bleeding can occur. High platelet counts usually indicate a disorder of the bone marrow or an overwhelming response to an immune blood disease. Low platelet counts indicate bleeding or excessive destruction of platelets caused by parasites or immune diseases. my guess is he has some periodontal going on with the platelet count |

:) THANKS D:) The BUN is not listed seperate, the creation (sp) is and at .9 (within norm range:thumbup:) So as the ratio being slightly elevated woudl point to the dehydration of him vomiting.... I appreciate your replies....Make me feel better His PLT (469) is slightly elevated, maybe that means he might not bleed as much during the procedure??? LOL Have a great one! |
