[Felvtalk] update on Maggie's not acting normal, advice is appreciated

2009-11-18 Thread TANYA NOE
 Well I took Maggie to the vets yesterday. Nothing out of the ordinary on 
physical exam other than she had a lot of stool in her and she was a bit 
dehydrated. Makes sense since she hasn't been drinking well. We gave her 200ml 
of fluids SQ and a Petema enema. 
 She seemed a little better last night and first thing this am but she is 
still not drinking and hiding. She keeps doing a weird chewing motion almost as 
if she is chewing on her cheek. She did it last night when I was cleaning her 
hind end after the enema and she does it when I put water in front of her. Now 
she is pretty much back to the way she was before the vets.
 I think I am going to take her back in on Friday and request an x-ray and 
another set of blood work. Her blood work 2 weeks ago before she felt bad was 
perfect so I at least have something to compare it to. She has been off the 
Interferon since the 12th. Any suggestions other than rads and bloodwork?

Thanks to everyone for their input.
Tanya

   My Bailey didn't do well on
 the interferon either, he was lethargic and didn't eat well,
 he also was on the 7 on, 7 off, I finally stopped using it
 and he was fine for years until he passed from pancreatic
 cancer.  Bailey was positive at 5 months of age when he
 found me, so pretty young too.

   It sounds like she has tummy acid, Fred has been doing this 
lately and he will not eat when he feels like this.  He gets a 1/4 of a 
pepcid AC everyday for now, once his weight is up and his tummy feels 
better I will stop it if that every happens.


Make sure it is pepcid AC and not extra strength.
