Guest nlochansky Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 (edited) Hi Alisha, I'm still thinking about you and Miss Mia. I the news continues to get better. Please don't worry about my collar order until your baby is feeling better... it's not like the girls don't have anything else to wear in the meantime!

2hounds Posted June 5, 2007 Author Share Posted June 5, 2007 **Update 6.5.07** It looks like Mia might be coming home tonight!!!!! I am so happy and excited! The vet wants to check her blood levels again and make sure she is still responding well to the pred, but she said Mia slept most of the night last night! My poor girl was so exhausted when we saw her yesterday, Bob and I actually picked her up and gently laid her down on her blanket and she never even lifted her head after that, she was SO tired!! So afterwards, they were nice enough to take her back to her kennel while she was still laying down and the vet said she never got up again, she just slept all night. I am so relieved!!! She is at least on the road to recovery and is feeling a little better today, I am so happy!!

Burpdog Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 (edited) Sending prayers. I'm off to Abilene but you know how to get ahold of me If she does not respond quickly, make sure they test for bartellonis which appears to becoming more prevalent. http://forum.greytalk.com/index.php?showtopic=113219&hl= Came accross this on another list (Circle of Grey). A woman's grey was tested for and had bartonellosis. From what I've read, it is the bacteria in cat scratch fever and can be passed from ticks to humans and dogs. QUOTE Dogs. Although of low prevalence, B. vinsonii has been documented as a cause of endocarditis in 4 dogs. A closely related organism is suspected to cause myocarditis and endocarditis in North Carolina where Bartonella seroprevalence is low (3-4% of dogs). Bartonella spp. may also cause unexplained epistaxis, idiopathic arthritis, granulomatous lymphadenitis and rhinitis in dogs. Antech Report edited to add: QUOTE Bartonella vinsonii, subspecies berkhoffii, has been reported to cause cardiac arrhythmia, endocarditis, myocarditis, and granulomatous lymphadenitis and rhinitis in dogs. Bartonella henselae also has been reported to cause liver disease (peliosis hepatitis) in dogs. While vectors have not been identified for Bartonella spp., ticks are believed to be likely vectors. There is a high rate of co-infection in dogs with ehrlichiosis, babesiosis and bartonellosis. Any dog being treated for Babesia spp. or Ehrlichia spp. infection and not responding completely should be tested for Bartonella spp. infection. Immunosuppression results from bartonellosis, and this may impair ability of the dog to clear concurrent infections. Of about 700 serum samples screened by Dr. Breitschwerdt's laboratory, 90 (11%) were seropositive for Bartonella spp., which is higher than the previously noted 3% rate. Of these 90, 30 dogs had no other antibodies against infectious agents and 24 had complete medical records. Among these 24 dogs, 30% had dermatologic changes of erosion/scabbing of ear tips and leukocytoclastic vasculitis on biopsy. Some dogs had joint pain, and 20% had uveitis with or without retinal hemorrhages. Twenty-one percent had neurological disease, several had changes in the CSF like GME, and 21% had AIHA. Half of the dogs had thrombocytopenia, and about one third had neutrophilia, monocytosis, eosinophilia, and anemia. ps - have them use North Carolina State for all further tick testing!

Xan, you should have heard me on the phone today giving instructions on how to keep the thoughts positive without including negative words.
