Oh Fudge - you are do gorgeous ! I am sending you virtual hugs :hug:
 
fudges breathing has started to deteriorate. It seems the fluid has started to build once again in her lungs. She has been stable for a couple of months on a resuced dose of spironolactone, which had to be done due to it putting too much pressure on her struggling kidneys. I currently have no choice but to increase it again. Breathing comfortably is our priority, i just hope her body can withstand the increase in meds. I sent off her urine on friday to see how her kidneys are doing as protein was increasing in dipstick, i paid an extra £60 for it to be sent externally, but I'm glad i did now as its more accurate. We cant hold off to see what the results are, she needs help with her breathing now. I just pray they where still as low as before, and this doesnt push them too much. Please pray for fudge!

Hi Adelle, thanks for asking. She's doing OK. We're just taking each day at a time, the new medicine doesn't seem to be disagreeing with her however I don't really know if it's doing anything either. I suppose there's no real way of knowing.
 
Thinking of you Fudge and Adele, I've got everything crossed for a good result on that urine sample.
 
Need to keep fudges thread going! So fudge seemed to get over her bad bout of breathing with a little extra diuretics, then returning the dose to normal. Her breathing seems to be getting heavier again, so it may need to be that she has her second diuretic given every 12 hours agin instead of the 16. Her latest kidney results are even better, pointing to a lingering infection that was succesfully treated, so we arent worried about her kidneys much at all the moment. After the tragic loss of my young sow, i realise even more how precious every moment is with fudge, as well as the others.

"mum took me back to the vet a few days ago. The vet was checking me over and i couldn't sit still.. I was chewing the edge of my carrier (which mum then had to take off the table), i was licking the vets hand then i was rumbling so she couldnt hear my heart properly! The vet took me away for an xray of my poorly heart and lungs, and i fell asleep in my snuggle sack on the way back upstairs to mum- with just my bum and legs hanging out the opening! The vet says i do have a little more fluid on my lungs, so i am having my yellow medicine every 12 hours again for 4 weeks. The vet will check my kidney levels at the end of the 4 weeks, and iv to go visit the vet again in 2 weeks. I'm still bright as a button mum says!"
