Default back from the hollistic vet :/

i really cant type this all over again so i'll copy from the fb lol

dex was very shakey since it's a new place but the receptionist treated him like a baby


ok so everyones question is how did it go at the vets? 1st of let me say how blunt this vet is. we were a bit late and the receptionist didn't mind. our meetin was about 35 mins long which is the longest i been with for an exam. he even asked why our other vet did a "senior profile" on him when hes only 3 years old...LOL @_@ they called the other vet for the blood test results and he said 2 liver were elevated and neuterin is not an option right now. apparently there are blood tests that can range from $100 - $2,000 dependin on how many chromosomes they want to look further into. so i got a 6 panel one was it? i'll let u guys know when the results come through the e-mail hopefully this weekend if not monday. dexter weighed 9.8 lbs on their scale. he also has a slight fever? i never even knew it...is there a way to reduce it? he also got the nutrition test done to see what nutrients hes missing in his body plus he also said een if a cushings test was done there are many kinds so it's not 100% hes negative on that...also it might be some kind of endocrine disease wont know till i get the results in the e-mail! ugh...have to wait soooo long

whats crazy was that u can hear it in his voice that he really CARED lol! the last thing he said was "we're gonna do everythin that we can, dont worry we're gonna fix it" sumthin around those lines


this vet also has a slot where u drop off your fecal sample when they're not open, reminds me of the drop-off box that post offices has LOL




here's just for nums! got this for lunch wif the bf after droppin off dexter at home


bought this to cheer me up LOL

Glad you had a good experience. How did you find the holistic vet? I'm in Indiana and have a hard time finding holistic places.
Hugs to Dexter!

Sounds like you were happy with him? Sorry you have to wait so long for the test results, it is hard to be patient under the circumstances! Hugs...

I am so glad to hear the vet was so good to you and Dexter. Praying the test results come back ok. Always thinking of you and praying for you both. Hope Dexter feels back to normal soon.

As for the fever: orange baby aspirin, lots of cold water, and even some orange popsicles can help.

Love to you to you both.
