She is feeling a little better with this new round of treatment but nothing like the puppy she was several weeks ago. Seeing her suffer everyday to some extent or another is taking it's toll on both of us. She is having a lipase test done right now and took in a stool sample to test everything possible. Still most likely IBD, Addison's would have been way better to treat. I am totally devastated, the fun life I had planned for her doesn't look possible and even with all the meds she is still not feeling great. Will see holistic vet on Friday, starting a home cooked diet for her. Praying for relief for my precious little girl!
Oh, Dee Dee, I am so sad to hear that Sophie is not too much better. Do you think she in pain or just tired? Is she eating, peeing, and pooping? Of course I will keep praying for her!
Eating great is a really good thing. So she probably doesn't have stomach discomfort. Is she in air conditioning?
I know Zoe really doesn't like heat or humidity, especially humidity. It really drains her. You are doing everything you can at this point. They are still testing so maybe they will find something with a treatment that works!
Oh Dee Dee, hugs and tears. We're all praying for Sophie and hope she gets to the point where she can start enjoying activities again, including seeing her friend, Emmie.
Have you had her tested for a tick disease recently? We have a lot of ticks in our area and Zoe tested positive for one of them along with her liver condition. Also could she sense your concern which may be affecting her mood? Just a couple of things I thought of. Her blood work seems to come out good so that's good. I bet she loved that bison!
My heart goes out to you and your baby. I can't even imagine what you are going through. Hang in there...better days will come. Good thoughts and prayers are with you.
Oh Dee Dee, so sorry to hear Sophie is still not feeling well. It's so hard when our babies aren't their usual bouncy Havanese selves. Hugs and prayers for you.
That is disappointing. How do you treat an unknown? Just by experimenting, which takes a very long time and a lot of effort. And, still, you may not stumble on the right answer. :frown2:
