My 10 year old baby Jazz was diagnosed with a Grade 1 heart murmur last year. I took her back to have her heart checked 6 months later and there was no change.
She went for her yearly check up last week and the vet drew blood from her, the blood test showed hyperthyroidism which is causing her heart to pump blood harder than usual. She is on medication for the next 30 days then there will be another blood test to see if the medication is working. If not the vet wants to put her into the hospital for 5 days
for a radioactive iodine shot, I will not be able to visit
. She has never left my house or been separated from her sister ever!
If anyone out there has been through this I would appreciate hearing from you, and please send prayers and good vibes to my Jazz.
Thanks
