    Mild pancreatitis-at my breaking point

    Thank you  both so very much.  I will read the article.  We were able to visit him yesterday and today.  My hubby took off his sweatshirt and he slept in-between us for two hours.  He has a slight fever but he ate this morning when they gave him an appetite stimulant.  Holding off on feeding...

    Mild pancreatitis-at my breaking point

    Thanks Denise.  I have a hope/fear of the feeding tube.  Scared for it but I know it could be what is needed for him to survive.  I'll do anything he needs to get him through it successfully and we told the hospital that too.

    Mild pancreatitis-at my breaking point

    Thanks Denise, He ate some yesterday which is good but he is very much not himself this morning.  I am having a hard time getting him to take the pills, I could only get the steroid down yesterday so I think he is not feeling well because of no anti-nausea.  We are going to try that again...

    Mild pancreatitis-at my breaking point

    Last Saturday is when he stopped eating.  We have been able to get him to eat little everyday.  Not what he should be.  Boiled chicken some days out of desperation.  Only licks his wet food.  Eats treats and a little hard food.  Pilling him is an absolute nightmare and he is so stressed out from...

    Sickness not from vaccine-pancreas

    Intranasal upper respiratory vaccine.  They are saying his not eating was underlying before I brought him in.  I just don't understand.  He was ate on Friday before I brought him to the vet.  When we got home is when he started to not eat.  I am waiting for more blood work today.  They gave him...

    Buprenorphine-Not Sleeping?

    I must sound silly, you're right.  I would be freaking out if  he was knocked out too.  I wish there was a happy medium.  Plus I am nervous he will be up for three days straight.  Glad to know someone else has seen the same thing.
