:lol: I was sort of, but not really, in disguise LOL
Thank you for the vibes we definitely need them!!
Our little lady has been back to the vet and on the way there there her head was at a bit of a strange angle and the first signs of some nystagmus, which was a bit of a blow, reckon EC is catching up with her in her weakened state or maybe the cause of the kidney issues?!?
My partner managed to ‘catch’ a wee sample but it didn’t show obvious UTI, but then it was a small sample and quite clear because of hydration etc our vet also checked protein levels for potentially using Fortekor but decided against that for now! She pondered giving a dose of sulfatrim for a potential UTI but opted for a slow release injection of engemycin as she thought in the big scheme of things that would be better alongside some panacur.
This may seem very futile for an older bun BUT until this she never acted like an older bunny, to the point we believed her medical history from the rescue was wrong!! She also still has periods of being very bright and runs into the kitchen to be with us if we leave the lounge. Today she has ploughed through several large handfuls of fresh grass... which is apparently so much tastier than every other veg and herb that Sainso has to offer :roll::lol: it is not her time just yet!! If a miracle happens and she picks up Iain Cope is primed and ready for the referral!!
My partner Ellie has been messaging Parsnipbun (Twigs) and we owe her a massive debt of gratitude, her advice has been invaluable the second new events unfold!
So glad you managed to contact Twigs. I am friends with her on FB so I was going to give her a nudge if you hadn't. Sorry to hear that Gracie is now displaying neurological symptoms. I expect the Vet held off on the Fortekor as it can have a dramatic effect on the blood pressure. I dont think a plummeting BP would be great for Gracie right now. I really hope that she can remain as well as possible within herself for as long as possible, with or without Surgery xx
