12/03/2026 Reason: Revisit HGE

History: Alex, Izabelle and son Thomas in today. V+ a few times on Friday (bile only). Haemorrhagic D+ developed the following day and has persisted despite courses of prokolin and metronidazole. Appetite has been up and down but still reduced. Bossa would normally love her food. No previous GI upsets in the past. No access to toxins. Diet is generally prime 100. Doesn't eat FBs that owners are aware of. Other dog at home is well. 

Medications: Paracetamol BID

Examination: 
Mentation: BAR, anxious but good dog
Body condition score: 5/9
MM: Pink, moist           CRT: 1s

Integument: WNL
Musculoskeletal:WNL 
Urogenital: WNL

Problem list: 
1) HGE - ddx infectious vs GI FB vs hypoA vs pancreatitis vs hepatopathy vs ARF vs AFR vs IBD vs other

Treatment:
- Bloods taken for GHP and CRP
- Maropitant 0.43mL/4.3mg SC @ 5.40pm

Plan: Discussed ddx with owners. I am concerned about chronicity of signs and would prefer to start investigation. Owners happy with this plan. Start with blood test, however even if results and WNL, would recommend abdo US as next step if clinical signs persist. SM to relay results to owner. 

--------------------------------------------------------
SM
Results:
CBC: mild increase plateletcrit (ddx low grade blood loss, inflammation, infection), rest WNL
Biochem: WNL
Lytes: WNL
CRP: 34.6
STO with results. Bloods largely WNL apart from mild increase CRP. Recommendation as per TB: abdominal ultrasound next step if no improvement. O would like to monitor at home for a few more days before going ahead with scan. He will call tomorrow and let us know how they would like to proceed. Since coming home from the vet Bossa has had some water and some chicken. 
Bloods emailed to o on request.
