Elsy has pancreatitis Elsy vomited blood several times this morning so I rushed her to the vet. She had a temp and after lab work was diagnosed with pancreatitis. My vet thinks I can manage her at home so he gave her some sub-q fluids, a shot for nausea, a med to coat her stomach, some flagyl and the same meds for home. She has been home for 7 hours and so far so good. She's feeling well enough that she is looking everywhere for some food but can't have anything until tomorrow if she does well tonight. He doesn't think it's due to her diet but to stress. I was in the hospital for 7 days 3 weeks ago and then had to go stay with my dad last weekend and she gets so stressed when I'm gone. Please say alittle prayer for her. |
Hope your pup is recovering! We lost our 15 year old girl due to complications from pancreatitis just last week. She was recovering from the pancreatitis, but she threw a pulmonary clot, which is apparently common after pancreatitis. Worst-case scenario for us. The docs tried to stabilize her, but even in an oxygen tank, she got worse and had to be put to sleep. Of course, she was 15, so that probably didn't help. You may want to ask your vet about Plavix to prevent clots. They put our girl on it, but she still threw one. Good luck. I'm trying to learn as much about pancreatitis as I can now-- I never want to go through that again. PS: Saying a little prayer for her... |
