2hounds Posted October 17, 2009 Author Share Posted October 17, 2009 Update 10/17 Iceman is doing well, he is alert and walking outside to potty. They are going to keep him one more night. He hasn't eaten since Thursday night (he refused breakfast yesterday and the vet didn't want to feed him last night or this morning to give his tummy time to settle) so they are going to give him some water to see how he holds it down (he has been on IV fluids) and then give him some bland food and see how he does with it. The vet redid his bloodwork and his liver values are still high, but MUCH better today. His Bilirubin is almost normal again so this is really really good news. She redid the ultrasound and still sees the "spots" on his liver but she isn't sure what it is and she isn't sure she wants to anesthetize him to biopsy since he is improving - it is possible it is just old man liver or hepatitis (how do dogs get hepatitis?) so we are going to continue watching him and decide if we want to biopsy. I am VERY hopeful that I will have my old man home tomorrow. If he holds down his food and continues to improve, we will be snuggling tomorrow afternoon!
