Sorry its been so long since I posted an update. the hubs likes to hog the pc lol. I had to take Eve in thursday since altho she initianally was doing better she started to go downhill again. SHe wasnt throwing up but her lil tummy was getting bloated like thngs werent going thru the way they should. It was hard getting her to drink again. Well the wet gave her SD A/D to help get extra calories in also gave her a vit b shot and nutrical. Plus he tested her for Addisons as she was showing some pretty classic signs.. it was her shaking and low sodium that suggested it more convincingly.

I have also been walking her small trips to get her bowels moving and it has worked wonders. She has more strength and is happier as days go by. She still needs coaxing to eat but is eating. She is drinking a lot.. she always has, and is peeing a lot.. which she always has. She is also brighter eyed and showed interest in her toys, but has not played yet.

Well her addisons came back and said she was a high normal.. a few points away from being abnormal. The vet kept saying she was an interesting little dog considering her history and bloodwork, and that she has him totaling stumped. SHe had a cushings test almost 2 yrs ago and they were perfectly normal, altho that is when her liver acted up. I shouldnt be suprised when she was younger i have suspected thyroid dysfunction but 3 test says she is low normal.. again just tap dancing outside the range of abnormal.

As of now we are doing a wait and see and hope she gets back on track. I am also going to switch her to one of the limited ingredient Natural Balance recipes.. kibble that is. Seems like she cant eat enough to keep weight on her on the canned version.. like there isnt enough room in there. She barely eats what I give her now. She has always kept weight on with kibble...
