The news isn't good. Lucky's kidney function tests are bad and he is now anemic. He is about 20 to 22 lbs of dog and 7 -9 lbs fluid. They drained him again today because he no longer eats and his breathing is labored.
Time to start the force feedings with puppy replacement milk.
Lucky's vet says he'll go as far as we want him to but his personal opinion is inserting a feeding tube is going too far. It would just prolong the inevitable.
Lucky's lab results:
ALB-1.5-low 3.2 - in range
AMYL-470-low 400 - low
BUN-30-high 18 - in range
CHOL-53-low 125 - in range
TP-5-low 6.2 - in range
RBC-2.98-low 6.71 - in range
HGB-5.9-low 14.6 - in range
HCT-18.2-low 44 - in range
MCHC-32.3-low 35 - in range
I'm feeling very blue.
