Just got a call from the vet. Heidi is in alot of pain. They think it is pancreatitis . Thats what Jorgie had . Thats why we had to put him to sleep. They are doing a specific blood test for this and will be sending it out to get checked. Other things they said it could be is a possible tumor, or gastroenteritis. They took xrays. It showed a large heart shadow which could be a problem or it could be normal for her since alot of toy breeds have this. Lets hope that its normal .. otherwise she may go into CHF.. Congenital Heart Failure. She also had arthritic lesions in her back where she has pain.
You guys I am beside myself here... I am bringing her home this afternoon. I want to be happy about this .. and I am but then I am also scared that I wont be able to help her get better. She will be on a liquid diet of water, ice and pedialyte.
Please keep your thoughts and prayers good vibes coming to her.. Last night was hell for me not having her here . Dont laugh.. I slept with her Ducky toy.. I know silly. But I had to have something close of her with me.
