My domino has been having issues for 3 years. At first it was struvite crystals. This diagnosis was obtained thru a sterile urinalysis. He was put on hills C/D and recently royal canin urinary so.
About 2 monthd ago he blocked, they put in a catheter and flushed his bladder.
A follow up ultra sound a month later revealed stones still present. He underwent a cystotomy 2 weeks ago. The results of the labs in the stones were not common.
The exterior of the stones are phosphate and calcium oxolate and urate. The interior of stones are calcium oxolate and urate.
So tomorrow he goes in for a bile acids test, which is a blood draw after fasting then a meal then another blood draw.
Can anyone give me some insite if you have had experience with this?
Thanks
