Ziggy went to the ER for not acting right and breathing fast. Turned out to be CHF and HCM undiagnosed. His left chamber is 2x normal and his lungs were full of fluid. He spent the night in the Hospital on meds and in Oxygen. Next day his X-ray showed his lungs were much, much better so they sent him home. In my opinion, he's not better and is worse. Last night was first night home so I am not sure if he's just tired or what. When we got home, he walked all over the house like he forgot his home. He would get tired and lay down on his side. He eventually went out on the screened porch and watched critters and birds but after that he came in the family room and slept flat in his side. I see dark black discharge coming from his eyes. He keeps going to his water bowl and drinking but is not eating. I woke up to him this morning in the basement (where his litter pans are) sleeping. He's not really sleeping by laying there and seemed spaced out. He looks at me but doesn't come or look "happy". Vet said to track his breathing for our recheck next week. His respiration was very high at the hospital and they were curious to see what it would do at home. I counted and if I did it right it's about 50/per minute which is BAD! I don't know what to do. He hasn't been home 24 hours yet and I'm scared but know the only thing they can do for him is to put him to sleep. I know I need to give the meds a chance to work but they just don't seem to be working like others report. Does it take time?
