zak vomited bloody mucus

Susan...I really thought he'd be back to normal by now. What other types of meds does your dad take? Maybe it was something different than a blood pressure med? Maybe the vet can give him sub-q fluids, and at least check his b/p & temp.. Or..have you checked his temp? I don't think this is coincidentally a different issue. I think it's all related.

Hang in there. I'm sure he'll be fine. You just need to get through it.
 
I am sorry that Zak is not feeling well. Poor baby.
Let us know what the vet has to say.
I'll be thinking about you.
 
Danisgoat I am so sorry I forgot to tell you the blood pressure med, it is AMLODIPINE 5 mg's. She felt that maybe the pill got stuck like it does with humans and irritated or burned it. He did drink some water earlier and I have been giving him some small bites of chicken this morning- he wants to eat, just don't want to over load him.
He does seem a little more himself and starting to pay attention to Parker again. I am sure getting to eat some has helped. Right now he is biting Parkers legs.
He is going in again today at 2:30 to see if he does need any sub-Q liquids and I am picking up more Metronidazole.
 
Zak got sub- Q fluids today and is feeling much better. I got my smile today and he has played with Parker some. They wanted to run out side but we will hold off on that for another day.
He got to eat a bit more for dinner and that made him so happy! He took a good drink of water after he ate.
We did a fecal today, yesterday he was not having those problems when I was in with him. He does have some bacteria. I am guessing he swalllowed that pill which bothered him and then this started.
I feel so much better, and I was able to eat tonight. When they don't feel good it upsets me. Hopefully we will get through the night with out the big D waking him up to go outside.
Thanks all for the support.
 
Thanks for the update! I am so so glad that it is a good one. I have been so worried about Zak. Good thing he got some sub-q fluid and that he is going to be on the mend now. Don't forget to take care of yourself! You have a lot going on over there. My thoughts are with you.
 
Me, too. I was concerned about Zak as well. Glad he is doing better and that he ate and drank water. (and that he wanted to eat!!) that's a good sign!
 
Susan, I'm just seeing this! I'm glad to hear that Zak is starting to feel better. It is so upsetting when we don't know what's going on or what to do.

Hopefully he'll continue to improve every hour!
 
He did well last night till 5:00 and had to go out. Not so runny any more but more gel like now. He got to have more for breakfast today.
