Maybe I'm dumb but I can't find a copy paste for images at all. Guess that will have to wait til I can access a computer.
Still waiting....
 
We JUST got home now. I'll detail everything but right now I want to give her insulin and her meds asap. They added on a medicine called Clopidogrel. They said give 1/4 of a 75 mg tablet once a day. Anyone know anything about it? Is it a good medicine? It's supposed to be a blood thinner to prevent clots.
 
This might be a dumb question, but for the Lasix, is the liquid supposed to also be in the pointier tip of the syringe which is above the 0 line? Or no liquid in there? I was just drawing some up and it seems like insulin where there are bubbles and it can fill or not that space ahead of the 0 line, which is substantial, imo.
Nevermind, I found out that amount, if any is in that hub area about the 0, to not worry about it.

I gave her Lasix and insulin when we got home, and tried to give her the Clopidogrel but she gave a real hard time being pilled and I think it must taste nasty because she threw up a little liquid, so she honestly probably didn't get it. Hope she at least got the Lasix. She ate real good afterwards and is drinking lots of water. She was very crackly while drinking; sounded worse. They told me to bring her back if gums turn blue, if respirations are more than 40, or if her abdomen heaves a lot with breathing. Hoping there won't be any of that...
I'll start checking her respirations once she settles in more and is relaxed.
I think since this is getting long, the next time I post regarding this situation, I'll make a new thread to continue it.
