Sophie Isn't Getting Better!

Well, finally got to talk with the Vet this afternoon. Sophie had another overnight accident on Sunday night. First one since she went on the meds almost 2 weeks ago. She has also started to have some issues with her rear legs. Seems to have a little trouble getting up. Also a little shaky. She is also just sort of in a daze, and it is difficult to get her to eat. We are going to discontinue the current meds and she is going to the Vet tomorrow to spend the day so they can do some blood work and depending on the outcome of that they will decide the next steps. The Vet is concerned with the rear leg issues and wants to do the tests for Addisons because should that be the case she doesn't want her getting into an Addisons crisis. So, that will be the next thing she looks at. Cushings is also a possibility and the Diabetes Insipidus is still on the table as well. It is also possible that many of the current symptoms have been caused by the meds that she was on for the Inflammatory Bladder Disease. So, just say a little prayer for her along with all the others on the prayers lists tonight that it is only the drugs causing these latest symptoms.

Linda -- Thanks for checking in on Sophie. We are waiting on one more test to come back that hopefully will give us some answers. She is still a sick little baby. The test is due back any day now.
