It sounds like if he would just eat,
then his PCV and protein would improve. Even though 22 is lower than he
was, at least it's still a decent number. I guess I'm just saying, I
personally don't think he is anywhere near being ready to cross yet. He
just needs help, and that is presenting to be tricky at the moment. I wish
I knew something to help you, but I don't, but still, personally, I think
keep on trying, don't give up yet. My Spaz was almost gone thrice, but we
made it. It seems strange to me that he would have a fever but normal WBC,
unless his personal count is usually lower, so this is actually high for him,
but still technically within the "normal" range. All I can tell you is
that Spaz, when in the hospital for her URI, had a temp that would go up and
down for about 8 days, and then finally was able to keep it down. I wish
you the best for Bandy!

I took him to the vet today..she is out of town, but in touch with
them..They gave him 200cc sub-q fluids, ran a cbc, gave him tagamet injection
and Bcomplex injection..His temp was 102.8 which it has been going up and down
the since Thurs..
His total protein was 5.8 (not good) PCV was 22 also not good since 3 wks
ago is was the highest it had been since he was on procrit last Aug..So she
thinks that maybe all his blood work is off due to being a little dehydrated..
He did eat a little when we got home on his own and drank some water..He went
to the litter box without falling, but it was all he could do to get back to
his bed and fall over on his left side since his leg trouble is on the
right..He did walk somewhat better though..but wobbly..
I gave him 3cc of nutrical, too..So they said I need to bring him back
tomorrow to be looked at again to see if he is better and for more
fluids. I hate to do that, but if he needs any other meds, it is the
best way for us to do it..I could give the fluids here, but he might need
something else..His WBC was normal...I think they will probably run another
PCV and TP on Monday to see if they went up after he is hydrated and hopefully
eating. I am going to try the immuno-regulin for sure..It might be what
we should have done a long time ago..
Nina, have you bought that from the site you sent to me or do you know
someone that has? Just wondering..Please let me know what you all know
about this as I want to start that asap.
Thanks again to you all,
Kerry and Bandy
