Update on Marcie

| | Comments (1) |

The emergency hospital did a battery of tests from kidney function to heart function. There were some normal outcomes and some not so normal (but that was expected with the diabetes). But still it was inconclusive as to why she went limp. They also took x-rays because they heard a minor heart gallop. He also thinks it could either be an embolism in the brain or the neck. But she seems so alert in the brain and that really puzzles me. I will find out more tomorrow. Please keep her in your thoughts and prayers for a speedy recovery.

Ooh, that's a little scary. Hopefully it was just one of those one-time things. Maybe just something about the diabetes made her briefly pass out? I think that can happen with people, can't it? So maybe it's true with pets. Hope she's feeling better now, at any rate. :)
