He has been pale & lethargic looking for about a month now. At first we thought it was the Flu, & it probably was, but now weeks later, he hasn't gotten any better except that he's not thorwing up.... We goo swimming quite a bit & he won't even get into the pool...he just lays by the side watching us or falls asleep.
We took him to the Doc this past Friday & he has lost 4 pounds. Our regular Doc wasn't in, so he saw somebody else...Anyways the Doc thought he was bloated & everything was a result of constipation that he has been having. She sent us home with miralax.
Anyways, Mollie had her 9 month c/u on Monday & I took him in with us. His regualr Doc agreed with me that she thought it might be something else & sent us for a blood test...the test still has not come back! :(
His Doc did say she thinks he may be lactose intolerant & thus the bloating, but he looks like a little Ethiopian Guy you know skinny with their tummies protruding and dark circles under his little eyes?
I am just a little worried that it may be something more serious. I hope not! If it was way serious he probably wouldn't still be drinking liquids & eating some, would he?
Just wanted to share with you all since this has been on my mind the last few days....
