Meg's Op Was a Success *UPDATED*
« on: July 23, 2010, 11:50:07 AM »
I cant believe it, a week before her eye op  :'(

I was up all night with her from about midnight (she was fine before that), then this morning she started passing pure blood so at 8.30 I was on the vet's doorstep.  She's now enjoying a very expensive stay in hospital.

I'm at work but TBH I'm so tired nothing is making any sense but I'd rather be here than sitting at home clock watching.  I have to ring the vets at 12.30 to see how she is.

Her temperature was normal, heart wasn't racing, she was just very dehydrated.  The vet doesn't think it's anything more sinister because she has been so healthy but if they're not happy with her by midday they will run bloods on her.

I feel sick, I'm so worried.

Poor Meg - Dallas had this at 11 weeks old and it is certainly not pleasant  :P

Really hope it's nothing more serious and she recovers quickly - might be worth speaking to the specialist as they may want to delay the op.

Get well soon Meg  :luv:

My vet did say that we'll monitor her closely and see how she goes because of the op. I guess they will make the decision for me on that one.

Thanks every one for your good wishes. I'll know a bit more in half an hour.

Oh no, I'm sorry to hear that Louise :'(  Rodaidh had HGE the week before I came back from South America two years ago, my parents were looking after him and they were worried sick, he spent a couple of days in the vets on a drip but he recovered fine. I hope Meg makes a good and speedy recovery, sending loads of good thoughts :bigarmhug:

Thanks everyone.

I've just called the vet, she's looking much brighter and she's responded well to the fluids and IV antibiotics.  Her kidney and liver function are normal.

They're now doing a "snap test" for pancriatitus(sp?) as the vet is concerned it could be that.  I don't really know much about his but she said that it doesn't effect her quality of life for her eye op.

I'll know more at 4pm today when I have to call them again.

Well that is a bit of good news anyway.  Kali had the same test when she had pancreatitis.  She had quite a mild form so I could take her home.  My first dog Sally (a Welsh collie) used to get frequent bouts of HGE and it is so scary.  Hope she continues to make good progress and you can then relax a bit xx :-*
