Bailey had bad stomastisis and also ended up with pancreatitis,
his symptoms started with lethargy and not eating very much, he didn't
cry out but was very uncomfortable when I fed him (he had a feeding tube
because he ate nothing on his own). He even ran from me one time when
it was feeding time. His temperature and blood pressure were low (low
blood pressure can be a symptom of pain). He also had chronic
diarrhea. We didn't ever do the test for it because my vet felt his
glucose and amalyese where within normal range so he probably didn't
have it, I asked her about it, I really felt in my gut he had it. We
did ultra sounds, xrays and didn't find it, all we saw were a slightly
enlarged spleen, his pancreatitis went untreated and turned into cancer
which killed him after about 6 months of being sick. In hindsight I
wish I had insisted on the test for pancreatitis, we may have been able
to rteat it before it turned into cancer ... ALWAYS go with your gut if
you have a gut feeling.
Prayers for Hobbs you can figure out what is going on with him.
