The vets are the best people to talk to - if you explain the situation carefully to them they will (should) be very helpful and understanding. Ozbek would be in good hands. At the practice I work in we often have to work with dog's that don't like us and are over protective of their owners. A blood test can take a few mins (depending on the dog's behaviour) but it is uaully possible to sedate them if they are really unhappy about it and you could get the results within a few days (even the same day possibly).
There really is nothing nmore you can do at home except keep him uiet, warm and comfortable. You could offer him fresh water regualrly and small bits of food (big bowls might make him feel even sicker). Try some boiled chicken or white fish? You could try warming some food up in the microwave as it make it smell better (just 10 secs or so and check its not too hot 1st). Also try cleaning his eyes with damp cotton wool as it might make him feel better.
The vets really should look after him and it might be that he has something treatable like diabetes. Even diseases like kidney and liver problems can be managed to give longer, happier life if caught early.
Good luck.
