Hi, again. I am following up on diarrhea from previous post. 6/30/2020, Tuesday had Vet visit for diarrhea and gave B12 shot, Metronidazole half pill 2xs day. She weighed 8.7 lbs. Vet feels she should be 9 lbs -10 lbs. I have been feeding for FF am with shot, +3 1/2 can FF, +6 1/2 can, and pm, +2 1/2 FF can.
on 6/13/2020 I began S. bouliardi 1/4 capsule per day but I stopped after vet because I wanted to see if metronidazole worked and/or B12. four days later and still diarrhea. 2 days ago had very soft poop, so I was hopeful, but early morning woke up to 2 diarrhea liquidy poops.
Also her diarrhea all along had strong medicinal smell and light in color.
Any thoughts?
Family has said add rice to food, isn't that a no-no with carbs?
History: Three days into Sassy's diarrhea, I gave 1/2 teaspoon of pumpkin 1x per day for three days. Didn't see improvement. I read that pumpkin with the fiber can also work the opposite, so I thought best to stop.
I am reading about pancreatitis and see diarrhea is only 15% symtom.
She eats all her meals, see her drinking, urinating. Unfortunately havent been able to test for ketones past few days. in past had .5 trace as on my spreadsheet.
She is not lethargic, comes to me when I call her and runs to her food plate. She goes up stairs to wake me for feeding. I have watched her walk and seems good. Still skinny by hine legs and stomach at times looks little bloated.
I have typed "diarrhea" in search box and have read and read. I have not come across posts with diarrhea for a long length of time.
Thank you for your thoughts. I will call vet again Tues after one week on metronidazole.
