Pix was dx in July....been doing good and is on day 15 of OTJ....
we should be partying, however, he started not eating and became lethargic yesterday.
He eats a very small amount and he is the type that is ready for his next meal as soon as the first one is gone.
Went to the vet today for bloodwork.
Also been posting on the Lantus Board regularly....
Well, I took Pixie to the vet this afternoon.
He is eating a little, but still pretty much just laying around.
Afternoon Bg was 174
His white count was extremely high 47.21 k/ul
(his white count was 32k/ul when diagnosed with diabetes in July)
NEU 35.56 k/ul high (this was normal in July)
LYM 9.40 k/ul high
MONO 1.74 k/ul high
GLU 198 mg/dL high
Those were the only elevated levels.
Vet seems to think there is an infection somewhere...put him on antibiotic, which I cannot even get him to eat.
My husband and I tried to get it in his mouth and I thought he had it down, then spit 3/4 of it back up.
Assuming it is very bitter tasting the way he is drooling.
Will try to crunch it up in his food.
Any help getting him to get these meds down, please and what you interpret from these high levels.
Lymphoma was mentioned, but he doesn't exhibit any respiratory problems.....
