Today I made my fourth trip to the vet in the last three weeks. Banana had her stiches removed and all seems well. Einney didn't fair so well. As i posted on Sunday she has lost a substaintial amt of weight. After blood tests and kidney functioning tests it was determined that her glucose level was only 27! As a result the vet is leaning toward the potential of pancreatic tumors. She said it was possible to do an ultrasound but with such a low glucose level she had few doubts. Einney has been started on Prednisone and the vet recommended giving her up to one tbsp of nutrical per day. I have been doing some reading on the FAQ and other web sites...they suggest not giving rasisns cause of the fiber and sugar combo..I did not quite understand. Anyone with suggestions please let me know. SHould I be supplementing her diet with duck soup or is there anything in it that will conteract the prednisone? I am suppose to call the vet back in a week and let her know how Einney is doing. Is low glucose the same as insulinoma? The vet also indicated I should rub Karo syrup on her gums if she goes into seizure. Luckly this has not happened yet. Cynthia and the Furry Heard [Posted in FML issue 2270]
