They did a urinalysis and found (obviously) a high number of red blood cells, but also a lot of white blood cells, indicating infection. They then did some x-rays since the vet said her abdomen was really tense, and after getting the x-rays back she says it is showing the very early signs of pyometra. She is going in for surgery tomorrow (or the latest being thursday, but the vet said they are really trying for tomorrow). Before anyone gets on me about not having her spayed, we got Misty as the family dog when I was only 12 years old. I had no control back then over if she got spayed or not. And once I was old enough to make that decision, she was already up in age and I feared her being put under for a spay. She is 11 years old now and I am absolutely worried sick that she needs surgery. She's never had a surgery in her life. I have no idea how she's going react to being put under, but I have no choice. I'm sure most of you know how serious pyometra is. I had no idea this would happen tonight... Poor Misty. Please send your thoughts/prayers this way! Both me and Misty need it. I will update after I know more tomorrow.
as they think everything from my hand is some great treat. They are odd, I know...
She alert, she's starting to walk around, she's urinating just fine (she woke me up 3 times last night to go. she has to go so much because of all the fluids she was on). I'm so glad things are so much better this morning.
