You beat me to it Julie
Back from the vet and things are much improved. She had a good night, not nearly so much jumping and a lot more settled. The vet seems pleased with her too. She is still a bit tender and so has been given another week of Ampicillin to take. He said it may well be something she ate. He cannot be specific about it happening again. He said it may be a one off, she may have a predisposition to getting it again or it may be immune triggered. One good thing was on the first blood test, her platelet count was fine.
Anyway, Kali actually picked up her toy hedgehog today so things are looking up! I have been told to keep a close eye on her when the tablets stop, just in case. She has been put on Hills low fat digestive which didn't please me. He said it may be the Burns that caused this but I seriously doubt that. The only other thing I can think of that I did differently was giving her some well rinsed canned hot dogs as training treats and also some Pet Bakery apple and cinnamon bars. He mentioned fat content but I thought it was the liver dealt with fat and the pancreas with sugar?
Main thing is that Kali is improving. I will start all my research into the whys and wherefores when she is completely better. If anyone can shed any light on it meantime though, I would be grateful. I (and Miss Kali) want to thank everyone who wished her well on here and by text and pm. I know I have said it before but knowing people have big enough hearts to care about someone elses baby, makes you feel less alone.
I am just grateful that for now she seems to be in less pain and that I can breathe again. Of course I am always going to be watching for a relapse but that is maybe not a bad thing.
