Lady - Fingers crossed, Low platelet count
« on: November 16, 2015, 09:39:48 AM »
Lady wasn't well on Friday - she'd been chucking up all day thurs, well after both meals and then was throwing up after drinking water and guarding a painful stomach. So rather than wait a few days I took her to vets 1st thing friday so she got all the works done, including a blood test. She's a lot better now and doesn't have pancreatitis, which is what we thought re her illness last week but her bloods suggest a low platelet count.

Fingers crossed its nothing nasty - it could be an autoimmune thing like Wilf had nearly 2 years ago but worried that I can't be that lucky as he sailed through treatment and became well quickly from that and still is.
