Well, not good news here. Remi had to go to the internal medicine vet yesterday...
He's been drinking a lot of water and none of the tests we've done over the last 2 months have revealed anything specific. He's also had pretty bad diarrhea the last week or so, and he's losing some weight. Couple grand later in tests, they found a shadow of a foreign object in his stomach on the ultrasound, and some streaking that is unusual in walls of the intestinal tract.
So he's in for surgery this morning to remove whatever is was that he ate (the oddsmakers are currently favouring a beech nut that has fallen from one of our trees) and to get some biopsies done on his intestinal wall. Surgery will be another couple grand. I don't mind the money at all, as I would spend my last dime on taking care of my pets, but I hope once the foreign object is removed, he's be back to his normal goofy self.
It's really the intestinal tract stuff that has me worried the most...
