The blood test results showed the Liver count was elevated.
All the other levels were Ok.
Today we took him in for chest and abdominal X-rays.
These were normal, the only thing that looked like it might
be inflammed, was the spleen.
The Vet also did two more blood tests, one to check for muscle
deteriation and one tick blood test. (to check for Lyme disease, etc..)
Bandhu has lost 7 lbs. in 6 days, and he is eating normally.
He seems hungry a lot. His face and head look different to us,
the bone on top of his head is protruding a lot more, and his face
looks skinny. The steroid eye drops have helped his eyes greatly,
they look almost normal now. He is still lazy and isn't interested in
playing with my other Golden. I guess the plan now is to wait to get the
two blood test results from today, and in the meantime I am to make an
appointment with a Vet. internist. My Vet says there is something going
on, and isn't sure what, and doesn't want it to progress. It's really
frustrating to see your dog, who is so, so young, declining in front of
you....and there doesn't seem to be any answers for it.
