The blind Babies and I were back at our vet clinic this morning, but this time for Winx.
Yesterday Blinx spent the day getting a few tests done. She had her recheck under gas anesthesia to see if her broken tooth was healing up okay. And thankfully it grew back without any concerns. She also had blood work to rule out any issues, and x-rays too. At the time of the x-ray Blinx was actually feeling great, and eating well. I was surprised to see how much gas she had! On the days that she tells me she has an ouchy stomach, it must be even worse 🥺. See attached x-ray, the dark shadows in the abdomen are gas bubbles.
All of Blinx's test results were good. So I'm guessing she's just getting a lot of gas pains, maybe she eats too fast?? She's definitely the wild twin, it's possible that's what's happening.
Unfortunately Winx continued to decline throughout the day and this morning she had blood work. I had concerns that her e cuniculi was flaring up causing kidney strain. Her kidney values are elevated and she's showing an immune response indicating inflammation, again likely due to her previous e cuniculi diagnosis. I also requested a new e.c. titer to confirm, but those results will take some time to return.
Winx is getting fluid therapy for a few days, antibiotics to battle the infection and I'll continue with syringe feeding until she's eating enough on her own. Today she is already starting to perk up, so I'm optimistic. Next week we will recheck her blood. 🤞🏼💜
