HELP PLEASE - Pancreatitus? shoot? R? Not eating.

[Grayson & Lu]

Help please. Grayson may be having a bout of P'titus (never had it before). I came home and he was laying in the middle of the kitchen floor, and didn't move. No appetite, even for the things (dog food, etc) that usually draw him in. 3 days ago he was eating 8-3oz cans of FF a day (normal for him). Today... maybe 2.

He's Acro - post-SRT. HUGE doses. Not sure if I should shoot w/o food on board. Pepcid en route. Will see about getting FPLI test tomorrow.

Stomach firm and tender. Threw up yellow/foamy liquid about 1.5" diameter. Runny poops.

Time got away from me, he's at +13. Need to shoot, but not sure without him eating.

Thank you. Got a google doc written by JoJo & Bunny on Pancreatitus - GREAT resource, as well as some insight from some experienced folks at the FB-Acro site! And Kim brought me some Pepcid & other supplies. Thanks to all for the help!

And... succeeded in getting Pepcid in him... in a piece of freeze dried chicken - GULP! ;-) Much easier than anticipated! (works great for pilling my dog too!) They LOVE that stuff!

Oh, dear! Poor Grayson! Just saw this. Will shoot over to FB to check the posts.

Had a vetty visit this afternoon and fpli came back as "abnormal". Urine & poo sample okay, no blockage, but a few of the blood levels were off... as was his BG. Meds on board, shot reduced dose w/ some R to bring him down (+20.2), and he's finally eaten something... so for the time being, we're doing better.

The good side, I shot a reduced dose last night, and he went surfing in the GREEN waters! Glad I cut back! Hoping this is the onset of the SRT kicking in!

Thanks for the eyes last night (and today too!).
