I can pick Dexter up at 2PM.
His breathing is slowing down but is still fairly rapid.
They are now thinking it is not asthma but some kind of lung infection or irritation.
I asked again about possible heart failure and was told his heart looked good and sounds OK.
I will keep you updated.
Please keep him in your thoughts & prayers.
He has had a lot of medications which I will list tomorrow.
His doctor showed me his x-rays and by the way he responded to the asthma meds that is now his tentative diagnosis.
When we get his urine & blood results tomorrow, if all goes well, they said then they can rule our anything else that might be contributing to the problem.
Right now....it all looks hopeful.
Lei, I'm so sorry to be late on this. Thank goodness your sweet boy is now back at home with you. Dexter, Sadie and you will be in my thoughts and prayers.
Dexter was hungry when he got home and ate like a little piggy.
Sadie stayed with him in tandem until they both settled down.
I have never seen anything like her reaction to him being gone.
Their attachment to each other is amazing.
Dexter's breathing is much slower & less stressful.
I hope that a good nights sleep will help him.
Thanks again for your support...
it really helps.
Lei with me in the process of moving i don't have my internet at home so i've just seen this. I've never skimmed through a thread so quickly to get to the update on Dexter
Lei I missed this!
I am so sorry Dexter was ill, but I am so so pleased he is feeling better now.
How scared you must have been and how upsetting to see Sadie missing him.
I am not sure how I missed this yesterday, Lei!
I am so sorry Dexter isn't feeling well, but am so relieved that he is back at home with you and Sadie where he belongs. Lots of vibes headed your way that Dexter feels much better soon and that the test results come out ok. Him eating is a good sign
