Musti update + stuff

[kribu]

Musti's done with the new round of antibiotics. Took in a new urine sample today - exactly the same stuff, too high blood sugar, high amount of leukocytes, protein and all that. No change with the infection either - and she's still leaving red spots, so that was to be guessed. :-/

She's also acquired a persistent cough this last week, which is quite obviously wearing her down. She's been rather listless and lacking in energy the whole week, but doesn't seem to be in any obvious pain.

Anyway, the vet said he'll want a blood sample, and so we'll need to take Musti in again tomorrow. I do so hope that goes well, as he'll need to anaesthetise her (I suppose a cat won't take kindly to a proper vein blood sample being taken, which he'll need to do) and at Musti's age, that's going to be risky. :-/ At least if everything goes well, I hope we'll find out just what the issue is, as it doesn't seem to be a simple infection.

In other news, I caved in and got a permanent LJ account. It's really the draw of 15 GB of permanent storage space for pics and stuff that tempted me... that's something I foresee wanting and using for a long time. Provided LJ stays around, of course.

{{hugs}} to you and best wishes to Musti for an unenventful blood draw.

Thank you. I just keep wishing there was something I could actually do for her. :-/

Thanks. I do hope it goes well, and that the results will actually tell us (or the vet!) something.

I'm really having my fingers crossed over here for musti :\

Poor kitty. I hope all goes well tomorrow.
*huggles you both*

Thank you. She just spent half an hour curled up purring in my lap and seems generally a little bit better off today, so I'm certainly hoping for the best.

Thanks, I do hope so too. It's so hard to see her feeling down and ill and not being able to do anything.

Fingers crossed that everything does go well.

*more hugs*

15 GB is useful... hopefully LJ will stick around!

[kribu.livejournal.com]

Thank you. I really do hope so!

And yes - it'd better! Don't want a permanence for only a couple of years or something...

I do hope that Musti feels better soon, and that all the icky gets resolved!

[kribu.livejournal.com]

Thanks. I just hope the anaesthesia won't cause problems, and of course that the blood tests will have something better to tell us.

~big hugs~ for both you and Musti. I've got my fingers crossed for the best outcome.

[kribu.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much. I'm hoping all the good thoughts from everyone will help!

[duniazade.livejournal.com]

Hugs to you and fingers firmly crossed for dear Musti.

[kribu.livejournal.com]

Thanks. I've decided she'll be okay. ;-)

Awwww... I hope the blood draw will help the vet find out the cause of her ills. *hugs you and Musti*

I took the plundge on a permanant LJ account, too.

I hope all goes well for Musti tomorrow. *hugs to you*

Thanks, I certainly hope it will. Poor Musti is already getting terribly anxious, not having had anything to eat or drink since last night - going around hunting for water and all. It's only two hours now until the appointment, but try telling a worried cat that!

Thanks, I do hope so too. Only a couple of hours left now.
