Jean Garner
Rascal, a sweet Jack Russell Terrier, age 10-11, adopted age 2-3. *I have attached a document of his recent symptoms and tests, because there has been a lot going on.
THE LATEST:
4/4/19: Our vet spoke to the ultrasound doctor and to an internist. Diagnosis/recs:
Microvascular dysplasia affecting liver
GI issues which seem to be improving considerably and may continue to resolve (started about 2-3 weeks ago)
B12 injections (started 4/4)
Lowfat or Liver diet recommended
Finish 2-week course of Flagy, and Baytril (finishes 4/9)
Stay on Cerenia/Prilosec for a while (?)
If the digestive issues do not stay on the mend, our vet said we may need to consider endoscopy to--biopsy, assess motility, check for H. Pylori, etc.
With all these latest findings, I am working on continuing to modify his diet to something he WILL eat that also is gentler on the liver and digestive system. Still giving probiotic and cranberry. Still giving Phosphorus a little until I can meet with Dr. Jeff for more specific homeopathic recommendations.
Thank you!
