10yr old Lab/ Pyr spayed female having gastro issues (bloating, diarrhea, some small vomiting, excessive drooling/ nausea) for 3 weeks now.
We’ve been to the vet twice, they ran blood work which all came back normal including the pancreatitis test (?). They xrayed her abdomen and chest (2x) with no abnormal findings except a smaller liver which was reported as not an issue.
Shes been on Omeprazole daily for 2 weeks, Cerenia we’ve tried twice but it seems to cause the diarrhea (but helps with the drooling/ nausea) so she is not currently on it, did a round of metronidazole (finished a few days ago), and they gave us some Sucralfate/ Carafate for her on Friday which we haven’t started as they didn’t give us complete dosing instructions (is it every 12 hours, 24, 8?).
Her appetite is good and she is drinking normally. She seems in good spirits and did a 2 mile walk at the park yesterday with a normal amount of energy / tiredness after. She did lose 5lbs in a little over a month (end of Jan to beginning of March) that was not intentional, in fact we had upped her kibble in that time span. We did change her kibble maybe a month ago from Wysong Epigen (which she’d been on since November) to Orijen Six Fish Amazing Grains. We’ve since put her back on the Wysong (about a week ago) with a small amount of Ziwi (both foods chicken based) to get her to finish the Wysong.
She’s never had a food allergy/ reaction before (had her since a puppy) and I’m not sure what it could be. We were improving with the removal of the Orijen (less bloating, seemingly less nausea) until this AM (had a dose of Cerenia yesterday) when she had diarrhea again. I just want my poor girl to feel better!
