Today was Geordie's 3 month recheck with his internal medicine specialist. She does an ultrasound and sometimes a urinalysis. This time only an ultrasound was done and I am very very happy that Geordie had no stones. He goes back again in 3 months for another recheck.
However, he has been having some recurrent diarrhea. His regular vet had him on an antibiotic regimen for about 10 days and he gets endosorb as needed. Had a fecal and no parasites or other issues found. Previous blood work showed mild pancreatitis. No diarrhea for about 2 weeks but it started again on Friday. He was OK yesterday but a bit of diarrhea this AM before we left for the vet's office today. While we were in the exam room and I was talking to the vet about the results of the ultrasound and also about the diarrhea he was crying a lot and was very squirrely. Should have realized why. Diarrhea again. Vet prescribed an antibiotic to be taken as needed. Possible recurrent inflammation which is causing the issue. May be related to his age. Perhaps, too, he has developed some sensitivity to his medications, both of which have diarrhea as a possible side effect.
