Update after a $800 plus full work up the issues have not Improved
Im sorry i got so upset but I still feel helpless
The Dr put her on anti-inflammatory meds, took xrays, No calcification, Clean stool Clean blood work. Is a week later and we are still having good and bad moments. This morning she is still standing but totally popping water. Yesterday couldnt stand on her left side and had normal poop. Last night she sat on the couch with me rocking her abdomen heavy deep breathing and pushing. Her are pictures of this morning puppy pad. Im out of Ideas and money. So anymore thought would be helpful.
Here is what was on her discharge papers
DIAGNOSIS:
Diarrhea – open etiology
Bumble foot – grade 2/4 both limbs
PROGNOSIS:
Trouble’s prognosis will depend on what is causing her clinical symptoms and how she responds to treatment.
It is unclear at this time what her prognosis is.
CARE SUMMARY:
Trouble did marvelously for her physical exam today, and it was such a pleasure to meet her! Our physical
exam was mostly unremarkable aside from her feet showing signs of bumble foot and her having diarrhea
staining around her rear end. We performed radiographs to rule out the presence of eggs and we could not find
anything mineralized. It is still possible she may have non-mineralized egg present and unfortunately our
radiographs will not be able to show that. If she continues to get worse, please have her return sooner in order
to have more advanced testing such as an ultrasound performed.
MEDICATIONS:
Meloxicam 15 mg tablets: Please give ½ tablet by mouth every 12 hours. Start tomorrow (1/10/2022) evening.
Yes she has one very small sore on her right foot that is being treated but nothing on her left
this mornings poo.
