If anything Tess felt worse after the vetty visit yesterday. I think the vet's stumped, the urinalysis showed no bacteria, so it didn't get sent out for C&S. Cistitis, but inflammation not infection probably. I asked if it could be a kidney stone that got dislodged during the U/S. She said it would be unusual for that to happen, but could be a possibility. The best we can do is try to keep her comfortable.
She gave us Clindamyacin as an alternative, if there is an infection somewhere else. It's supposed to be given w/ food, but Tess didn't want any food last night. I managed to get the Ab and a spoonful of baby food into her, but she threw it up about 10 minutes later and didn't want to eat the rest of the night. Very agitated and constantly up and down, out to the littler box and repeat. The Bupe I gave her at preshot didn't seem to do much, so I gave her another dose at +5. It was much earlier than she should have gotten it, but it did let her settle down. I did get some Ondansetron in her and cypro too, in case it was nausea keeping her from eating. She was just totally disinterested. John eventually got about half an ounce of baby food in by spoon feeding.
I got up early and got a +10.5 test 373, so I gave her a dose of R. It seems to be working better than the Lev lately. Although she had just started to get back to normal , now this. I want to curl up in a little ball and hold her, but she won't let me. She just hides under her chair.
My poor little girl is just feeling so punk. Lots of feel better soon vines for her, please!

Unfortunately the clindamycin isn't going to do any good if she can't keep it down.
We even did scrambled eggs this morning to see if we could tempt her. No go.
