Frostie is a 5 years old female. On Saturday, she had diarrhea. There was an appointment already with the vet for Monday at 12:30. I am thankful I had it. She has dropped 8 ounces in weight since she saw the vet in October. She weighed in at 1 pound. The vet took a blood sample and was able to get a stool sample. The stool sample showed a spiral bacteria. The vet immediately gave her a shot of antibiotics and sub-q fluids. Frostie has lots of energy but she is only skin, bone and muscle now. The lab results showed she is fighting an infection. She is anemic and also insulinomic. She had one adrenal gland removed last May but her coat and weight never came back. My dilemma is how to get some weight on her so we can get her in for exploratory surgery. I would appreciate any and all help I can get to put weight on her without the use of sugar.
