A little Phillip update

I've not been very active on the forum lately as life has been busy but I'm still here :wave:

Just a little update on Phillip for anyone interested.

He's very well within himself but has been drinking huge amounts and become incontinent most evenings and some days now.
I was worried he was in kidney failure since the incontinence had become worse so last week we took a trip to Anton. The results came back today and his bloods look good, including his kidneys, which is a relief. His EC test, which has been positive in the past, was negative.

Tomorrow we are back to see John for a CT scan and other expensive diagnostics :lol: John has suggested that arthritis of the spine may be the cause so hopefully something will show up on the scans. A little worried because of the anaesthetic but Britney and Whitney are going with him for moral support and I know he will be in the best hands.
 
Hi. :wave: I'm glad Phillip is doing well, though I'm sorry to hear about his incontinence and his drinking so much. It sounds like you're doing everything you can to find out what's causing it, and I hope you'll get an answer soon so you know what you're dealing with. Sending Phillip so many vibes. I'm glad he'll have Britney and Whitney with him tomorrow for moral support. :love:
 
I'm sorry to hear that. Hope we hear good news from Philip soon. Hope everything goes well for Philip...
 
I often think about cutey Phillip. I'm pleased his tests came back good. Lots of vibes for tomorrow- I hope it provides a way forward
 
Thank you for your kind wishes everyone, we are here safe and waiting to go in. Feeling very anxious and everybun is all sulky with me
