About a week ago my dog was bleeding and it appeared to be a UTI.
The bleeding deminished with some meds but her platelet count remains low.
We are now on the third or fourth trip to the vet and her blood count(s)' are still down - now her red is down as well.
The vet gave her a shot to boost her immune system, as the numbers point to Immune-Mediated Thrombocytopenia. Her demeanor is ok, waggy tail most of the time, getting up and down ok....smiley...just letharghic. We'll know within 48 hrs if the shot was helpful.
Few things in the world give love unconditionally like her!
