Re: Flynn 11 y/o Foxie Cross - Right adrenalectomy, 3rd Dec 2012 for Pheochromocytoma
Thanks everyone, Flynn is super good. I have him totally off the Tramadol and he seems very perky. I picked up his new biscuits today and they were doing a promotion with the dog food and he got a free yellow blanket. I gave it to him tonight, he thought it was a nice soft snuggly toy and promptly bit a hole in it :D

That's our boy:D:D:D:D: I love his spunk:):):):)
Zoe is perkier off the tramadol. I was giving it to her at night and it was such a low dose:confused:
From what I briefly surmised from the article is that the author is suggesting an ACE inhibitor is the way to go even with a consistent UPC of .5. I have argued about putting Zoe on one because I worry about using that with Vetoryl and her blood pressure is borderline. I think it is lower than they read it as she gets really upset when they make her lay down and they refuse to take it standing. Her blood pressure was 158 but she was so stressed out from the car ride, she cried half way there, she never did that before.
Maybe I have to rethink it.

Trish,
Great videos of Flynn! What a great beach he has to frolic on. I grew up on the beach--(Long Island) and I wish Trixie could check out the ocean but there are no beaches that allow dogs around here!
I think in the winter you can take your chances and hope you won't get caught and given a fine but we've haven't tried.
With all the beaches we have around here you'd think one of them would let dogs in at least for a few hours in the early morning.
Love seeing Flynn running around and sniffing stuff out. It just looks beautiful where you are! :)

Trish, I guess that Flynn had to make it truly his own:)

That is funny about the blanket. Still missing his toys I bet. :)
*sigh* I miss a good ocean beach. :(

wow that article is written for very educated persons, lol
will need to break some of the words down so i can understand it. that is really nice of the doctor to send that to you. thank you for sharing that. do you think it would be okay to send that link to our IMS? on the off chance he has not read that or see his input if any? Shysies UPC isnt 2 but sure dont want it to get higher......

Hope your weekend is off to a good start:)
I read the article wrong with my quick scan so feel better about not having to worry about .5 UPC so much:o:o
I hope the sun is shining and you and Flynn get in a good walk at the beach.
Am late for work so have to run just sending hugs and love to you and our Flynn

Hi Trish,
Just checking in on you and Flynn. I have not posted much for the past couple of weeks due to being so busy and my Mom being in town last week, but have been trying to keep up with everyone by reading. :)
I saw on our thread that you had not been feeling the best. That was a while ago, so certainly hope you are all better now. That vertigo is awful.
I loved Flynn's most recent videos. He sure enjoys his walks on the beach. Glad to read he is feeling so well, always love to hear that! :D
Thank you so much for posting the link to that proteinuria article, it was very informative. Lots of good information I thought. I need to post an update on Jasper, he has had a lot going on. Labs from 8/3 weren't too bad, still need to post the abnormals. But he has been fighting a nasty UTI since about 8/14. He is quite a bit better now, but only a couple more days of the antibiotic left. Hopefully it will be enough to kick it.
I hope you guys are having a good weekend Trish. Maybe I will see you here over the next day or so!
Hugs,
Tina and Jasper xo
