Recently went through the horror of a gastric bleed with Wendy. Kerry, it's very frightening but with proper care I just know that your Wizard will be fine. :grouphug

My blog about grief The reality is that you will grieve forever. You will not get over the loss of a loved one; you will learn to live with it. You will rebuild yourself around the loss you have suffered. You will be whole again but you will never be the same. Nor should you be the same, nor would you want to. Elisabeth Kübler-Ross

Just wanted to add to everyone elses well wishes for Merlin.

 

Know exactly how your feeling right now Kerry...went through it with Pip not so long ago if you remember? It was colitis and pancreatitis. She is absolutely fine now and I'm quite sure Merlin will be too {{{hugs}}}

Run free our beloved Sir Snowy, Pip, Queenie, Sadie, Tess & Rosie until we meet again......I would rather feel the thorn than to never see the rose

I think I just went through this and Huck was diagnosed with IBD yesterday. He started his B12 shots today. She also said to keep him on TOTW (and I mix wet food with it), but nothing else. My dog had severe blood in his stools. Our best wishes to you.

Just seeing this Kerry. So sorry Merlin is having this trouble. Prayers he is on the mend and on his way home.

 

HUGS to you, I know how hard it is when our babies are sick.

Kerri,

 

Thinking of Merlin - hoping he is OK. Dustin's vet gave me Flagyl today and they have decided to put him in an I/D diet figuring it's irritable bowel. We have had one blast of blood this afternoon.

 

Hope your boy gets to come home this afternoon.....

Just got off the phone with Kerry, Merlin is home but they have to watch him very carefully tonight to make sure he isn't still actively bleeding. I'm sure she will update more once she gets the boys settled

HGE . . . .that's what the blood work points to, just like with Soul. HGE is pretty much a 'catch-all' dx when they can't find out from the bloodwork or fecal analysis what is causing the intestinal bleeding. Usually it's some sort of IBD that requires further invasive testing to find out for sure, but the goal at this stage is to get the bleeding under control. Usually dietary modifications can prevent future episodes, but it's trial and error to find out what 'works' for the long term
