I'm so annoyed!! The stupid vet's office didn't call me with results & I left several messages to see if I could an answer today. I went out & came back to find a message to please bring him in tomorrow but NO RESULTS :mad: UUUGGH…I could scream!

Thank you for your kind words & prayers. It helps a lot!!

Any news today?

[jys1011]

My mind is slipping today..:(

Ok so I finally called the vet AGAIN since this was just ridiculous. I spoke to the vet directly & we went through all of the results in his bloodwork and urine analysis. Nothing came back abnormal except for PH levels. There's no protein loss that would explain the weight loss he's been experiencing. His white blood cell count came back normal which means no infection. So we're stumped…

In October when we went for his general yearly check up the lab sent back this information with his blood work that he could have Pelger Huet Anomaly. So I've been researching this to see what this is & if it could be the problem he's experiencing. It would have been nice if someone alerted me to this in OCTOBER and not January my resluts were given by the other Vet partner in the practice. My vet was very upset about it as well.

So we don't know why he's peeing more than usual why he's lost almost 5 lbs and why he's panicking every time he goes into his crate????

Personally I would change vets, they could have jeopardized your furbabies health b/c of miscommunication. Sorry, that is not good, I would change for sure. You need to get to the root of this problem, it is happening for a reason.

[tanza]

That would be my suggestion also… I would find another Vet and I would also demand complete copies of all the test and blood work. And I would do it asap... Did your Vet say what the liver values were? or Kidney values... ??
Personally I have never heard of Pelger Huet Anomaly.... and hard to believe that you were not contacted... But then again, I also request copies of all blood work and have my own copies of Vet records in my possession ......

I posted my response on the other thread too

Oh man, J. It does sound a bit fishy to me. I'll check with some friends for a good vet in your area ASAP. I'll PM you if I find one. I am still thinking of him…

High urine pH might have something to do with what is going on. Usually when the urine pH is off either high or low, it increases the risk of forming urine crystals. Since he is drinking a lot of water these crystals may be hard to detect in the urine. I know that my male cats would block with urine crystals almost every time we had a stress change for them, such as a move or new puppies until we got them on a diet high in moisture to keep their urine more dilute to prevent crystal formation. So maybe stress precipitated the problem but I would get a second opinion since you know that at least one value did come back out of range.

I'm saying a prayer for you and your B. ((((HUGS))))
