The inconsistency is that one says only feed mineral oil with food, another says that's dangerous. Thats what's inconsistent. The X-rays dont show any blades stones, but he released two of them, that's also inconsistent.
Also find it so off putting that some folks speak with this "please" attitude, is anyone here a vet? it seems the vets are clueless too though, so that's pretty irritating. I posted pictures of the stones he released and they are identical to all bladder stones Ive seen in pictures so far. The vet said they would call me back but they didnt, I called yesterday and today and they are irritated with me and Im the one watching him struggle. I sent a form to get copies of the X-rays, they say it could take 5 days, wtf can take 5 days sending a copy of an X-ray? Im about to get hostile.
Right now what makes sense to me is that he has something in his intestines bc that's what the 'Doc' says and because he is pushing so much he pushed out some small bladder stones he happened to have too that didnt show up in the x Rays. I gave him some mineral oil on a few strawberries he was down to eat ( and yes Im aware strawberries are not ideal but in this moment it makes sense to me that its better with the oil than with not, and the 'doc' seemed to agree). I put some mineral oil in his bottom not too far in and I think its ok as it wasnt far enough to reach a urethra . When I forced those ...people.. to talk to me on the phone earlier we came to that a feeding tube for water and some food would be good and an enema by them, and a calcium supplement are all on the menu. Question is prices and they would "get back to me" Im pretty sure it will be me getting back to them. If its too expensive I will call the Davis school.
Thanks for the help everyone I think Ill take it from here.
