I am absolutely devastated as my perfectly healthy 1year old boy suddenly started to change dramatically.
He started to picking his littler sand which i immediately informed the vet about it! he did some checkup and nothing was wrong! until 10days ago I noticed he is getting constipated and drinking lots of water and less food! and throwing up only small amount of waters with nothing with it!
Dr suspected hair ball or something stuck inside so gave a very strong laxative and immune booster to help him with the problem! it only helped while I was giving it to him! the stool color changed to black so took him back run some blood test and test for FIV which was negative. but the blood test indicated something wrong with liver and pancreas.
started the medication and he stopped eating or drinking on his own completely, so I am force feeding him since then. Now after a week he is still feeling down, losing weight and black small pieces of stool every 2 or 3days. he is eating Hills a/d so the Dr said it is ok to have little stool. I noticed abdominal pain and during these days I was in contact with the vet all the time! so today he went for Ultrasound and plain Xray. nothing in ultrasound but enlarge kidney and liver, with some weird structures observed in the stomach which i think might be the litter he ate. tomorrow they are going to do a barium contrast xray to see the movement.
Does anyone know or is familiar with these signs as the Dr is worried if the problem is still with the liver the medication wont change which up until now he didnt respond to them. Im afraid that I might lose my boy which I cannot handle it. I'll do anything to help him! but i am running out of options and he is getting worse and in a lot of pain.
the medications are 3kinds of antibiotics, liver supplement, lypex for pancreas, hi-vite liver and iron supplement and immune booster!
Up until now he had all of his vaccine, parasite control, neutered, ate high quality food such as nature's variety can food and royal canin dry. with treats such as salmon, kitzyme B-complex and so on!
