Hi Brenda, How is Jessee doing today? How I hope that little guy is not in very much pain...I just can't bare it when our kids are hurting and there isn't...
Hi Sandy: Didn't they do a urine culture? Did they get the results yet? I would say maybe take it one step at a time before committing to an entire package of...
Amie, A urine and C&S were done on the 28th, yesterday just a urine was done as there wasn't any growth in the culture from the 28th. Because the amylase and...
Hi Sandy: I thought it could take up to a week to see results from a culture. Hopefully others will weigh in. Some thoughts: Were the amylase and lipase high...
The results of the amylase and lipase were on the urinalysis. all the electrolytes were within normal ranges...as the elevated levels are related to the...

I can't help you with any of this...It's all greek to me...I am so lucky to not have had to deal with any of these kinds of problems. I do know when Cody had a...
Hi Sandy: Sorry, I did not know you could test for those in a urinalysis. I did some searching on the web and found some interesting information regarding ...
Amylase and lipase are pancreatic enzymes but they are cleared by the kidneys so they are often elevated if the kidneys aren't functioning properly. They are...
Hi Sandy, Jesse is actually a big girl not a little guy. She's a 16.5 year old Lab/Shepherd mix. Pain is not her main issue. Even though she has horrible...
Sandy, They do not test for amylase or lipase in urine. Nor do they test for electrolytes. There really wouldn't be any reason or need to check for those...
Thank you Brenda, You and Amy have given me some very ggod advice. I will be printing this information out as well and take it with me to the vets. I wish I...
One thing I would highly recommend, since you do seem to be getting some weird information, is to get copies of all of the reports. That way you know what the...
Sandy: he also had bloodwork done post-surgery when he was in the hospital, right? And he has the same exact symptoms now as he had then? Has anything really...
No Amy, no blood work was take after surgery and yes he has remained on the NSAIDs...That will stop immediately. He is not on anything else. I will ask my vets...
Sandy: if it were me, and this is just me, i would stop the NSAIDs and wait at least 3-4 days to see what happens before spending any more money at this vet....
Sandy: aren't you in Orange County? If so, the Orange County SPCA has an *Animal Rescue Fund* which they say assists low-income pet owners with emergency ...
Sandy did report that Timmy's blood work from his emergency stay was normal. That's why it makes no sense now that they keep telling her that the amylase and...
I agree with Brenda and I probably would argue with them about the charges for last weekend. If you send them a letter saying that they provided inadequate...
I have held the previcox and will continue to do so as you suggested. The last "Blood" work done on Timmy was pre-op blood work. When Tim was readmitted and I...
Sandy I hope I don't offend you, and I'm no expert, but I think any vet who has a dog post-surgery that had anesthesia plus NSAIDs and has eating, drinking and...
Amy, I agree with everything you have said!!!!! You do not offend me in the least!!!! I am so frustrated, angry bla, bla, bla...with that place I could just...
I just got home and raced to the computer... I think I really like Dr. B...a good, basic vet...and I like what he said...do one thing at a time... I'm glad to...
Hi Sandy, I'm glad that you got Timmy in to see his normal doctor and that he seems to be taking a more conservative approach. A couple of things you said...
I agree about the conservative approach also... It's time for Tim to just begin to heal and recover...poor guy... I am hoping that this weekend is his turn...
A couple of things you said confused me. When did Timmy have elevated liver function tests? I am sorry....Timmy didn't have elevated LFT , and no one...
Well I just have a feeling that Timmy is going to start feeling better soon and you'll be able to put all of this behind you. Delivering food and water is part...
