Positive thoughts and prayers for Crystal needed again...

Seems whatever was going on with our fur baby crystal, is gearing up and worsening again. She is back to the labored breathing, and vomitted again yesterday, but only once so far. But she is back to hyperextending her neck when trying to breath. When she lays down and tries to relax, abdominal breathing kicks in. the vet is supposed to come by soon to see what he can do for her. I am thinking we may need to see a vet that is a little more equipped.  Just don't know... This guy got everything settled down before, but here it is coming on again...

I am feeling very worried, stressed and concerned. Especially with my trip coming up Wed morning. I hope all is resolved by then. Long before then.

Thanks for taking the time to read this and for all of the support you all give me when I need it.

aahhhh, how sad. i know how i worry about my babies and i bet you are really very worried about crystal.  i don't pray, but  my thoughts go out to you.  sounds like u are thinking about a second opinion and it probably would be a good idea.  for me, i have waited out of a misguded sense of responsibility and i let my babies suffer before i could put them down with love and concern.  let me know if i can do anything for you, my friend.  my heart aches for the situation u are in. love ya. vick

 

EXPERIENCE WITHOUT REFLECTION IS HOLLOW

Well Vick.. I am definately getting a secnd opinion on whats happening. If its treatable and won't continue over and over, I will be thrilled. If not, there are definately some tough choices to be made. BUT until we really know what is happening, I hate to even consider it. She's not even 7 yet.. The poor baby. Definately putting a damper on the day for us. (birthday / anniversary) and all we are really concerned with is crystal right now.I am hoping we will find out it is something very treatable and will not continue to re-occur. Thanks for the positive vives and support.

Thanks everyone. I am just about to go into full emotional down time... There is a bloackage of some kind in her esophugus. They do not know yet if it is a growth or froeign body. By the way, Crystal is our dog...a fur baby really a lovely family member. She is really struggling too.

She will have to go have an endoscope done, which will cost a small fortune. If it is an object, they will remove it during the scope. If it is a growth, we are told there are 2 options... let her suffer it ut or put her to sleep. they cannot do surgery in the esophugus. But if it is an object they can grab it and pull it out during the scope.

I am not a happy camper. Hoping to God it is a foreign object, but knowing her, and given the fact that the antiinflammatory eased things up temporarily, I am scared it is not an object. Hoping for the best, butbracing for more heartbreak.
