Nicola said:You're absolutely right Keith....do as the vet recommends. I think both vets are right in that this is all a result of the antibiotics, which have upset her digestive system and caused the colitis.midlanderkeith said:
I do hope her stomach lining settles down. It's probably inflammed which is causing her some pain/discomfort. The medication you are giving her should be helping her.
Good luck :luck: I really do feel for you...it is such a distressing condition.
) it was late at night last time I wrote and their birthday isn't untill tomorrow, 28 th April, but lots of love to Jill even so :wub:No TC im on about stools not chairsTC said:
Awww, now thats most kind of u dear lady it really is, and i wont forget that, but she is well wrapped up i can assure you, :huggles: , now then while im here i will update on jill, poorly its as simple as that, shes done nowt but sleep, ok she eats a little now and drinks but it doesnt seem to be doing her any good she really is weak, unable to jump on my bed, and when i pick her up she winces, when she eats to she winces, and her poo just literally shoots from her, its really done my head in this weak just watching her shes nowt but spine and ribs, it will be a week tomorrow since she became ill, if it is colitis, how long is it before they start to recover, im due back at the vets in the morning, we will see, now then folks one thing i never mentioned, dunno why, but jills last meal was mince from tescos, frozen by me and thawed by me, afterwards she threw up never been right since, if i remember rightly a while ago my lady gave her mince and she did exactly the same, so in a way im now blaming myself for the condition jill is in, i dont want to appear to be a morbid get for im not, but i find myself jumping up in the night to see if shes still with me., shes a lovely member of my family and i honestly could not envisage life without her, there is no lenghts on gods earth i wouldnt go to to get her well againTanya Docwra said:

. Some dogs can have an adverse reaction to some antibiotics.
What a worrying time for you all All best wishes & hope Jill starts to feel a lot better soon :luck: :luck:Not long been back from the vets, he gave her a good going over and says she is responding to his medication at last, and says she is less dehydrated, i could tell she was a little better when i woke up this morning with her attitude, anyway down she went for a jimmy riddle, didnt do a poo which is strange for her, i made her a warm drink, milky water and sugar she walloped it, i put her outside when i got back from the vets, she did a poo and i was really pleased to ogle it cos although it wasnt solid, its getting there, the vet hasnt given me anything else for her to take and told me to carry on with what ive got.*Caz* said:Poor Jill
