Guest guest Posted October 17, 2007 Report Share Posted October 17, 2007 Fred was admitted to hospital last night after having 102.8. fever. That was the last straw - could not get his gasro to call back, and he wa in a lot of pain and still tons of diarrhea. Lost 15 pounds in about 10 days. I finally got the dr on call after 90 minutes and she said go to emergency. His gastro this am not convinced it's pancreatitis, even though lipase level 5 times the norm. He'll have endoscopy and sigmoidoscopy this afternoon. His pulse rate in emergency room was 140, was down to 119 when I left. He's definitely a sick puppy - it's his first ever admittance to a hospital. So I'm on my way over to aspire to the patient advocacy role of Barb Henshaw - yeah, wish me good luck with that!
