Robin1017 Posted May 3, 2013 Author Share Posted May 3, 2013 Finally on a computer instead of the phone....my phone used to type fine but now it does all those crazy capital letters and stuff! grr... So I am home now, but Robin is not. He is staying the night at the hospital so that they can monitor him, keep him still, and give him fluids and pain medication. His fever has gone down, so he seems to be stable (though high as a kite, when I saw him before I left!). But he's having a hard time getting around, and it would have been very difficult for me to take care of him at home. Plus I would have been freaking out all night long. (I barely managed after his dental....) We don't know yet what is going on to cause this whole event. They took xrays of his spine, and there are no obvious issues, or tumors, or anything, nor in his lungs, so that is good. They are doing bloodwork, urine, and another xray, I think. I hope something pops up that is easily dealt with.... In the meantime, I'm home without Robin for the first time ever. I do not like it. Quote Cathy & Calvin (DOB 9/18/13).

Robin1017 Posted May 3, 2013 Author Share Posted May 3, 2013 Robin Is No Worse, But No Better. Still In Pain, Despite Lots OF Hydrmorphone And Gabapentin. Nothing Remarkable In The BLoodwork. ThEy Are Thinking A Tumor In His Spine Or An Infection In The Spinal Cord. Want To Do A Ct ScaN, Or Send Me To A Neurologist Fire A Spinal Tap Or Mri. But We Don't Know If The Ct Scam Would Give Us Any Reasonable Treatment Options, You Know? For Example, I'm Nor Going To Put Him Through Spine Surgery... Along With Diagnosis, The Main Thing Right Now Is To Get Him More Comfortable, Which IS Proving Difficult. I'm A Mess. I Left Work To Deal With This Even... Quote Cathy & Calvin (DOB 9/18/13).

Robin1017 Posted May 3, 2013 Author Share Posted May 3, 2013 I'm having them do the urine culture and blood culture to check for spinal cord infection, as well as the tick panel. Also I have them starting the doxy in case it is TBD. Not doing a ct scan or mri, at least for now. The main thing I'm trying to decide and see is whether I can take him home today. The vet wants to keep him there. I don't know.... How long does the doxy take to work if it's going to? Quote Cathy & Calvin (DOB 9/18/13). Always missing my angel Robin (Abdo Bullard).
