4275.4 | Maybe this will help ... | ESIS::FEASE | Andrea Midtmoen Fease | Fri Dec 28 1990 10:27 | 14 |
| Hi Lisa,
The vets at Tufts suspected pancreatitis in Bigfoot during 1989.
At the end of the year, it was determined that he had a cyst on his
pancreas and had to have his spleennd part of his pancreas removed at
the tender age of 12. He did wonderfully.
You know how Scruffy feels and, between you and your vet, you can
decide what's best for Scruffy. I just wanted to give you a success
story.
Best of luck with Scruffy!
- Andrea

| Thank you for all the well wishes. Andrea-I will seriously take your
story into consideration when making the final decision. I just got
off the phone with Dr. Gleeson and he wants to try keeping Scruffy off
food and water for a couple of more days. He seems to feel at this
point that since Scruf is doing mentally well that by
restricting/eliminating his intake the pancreas will shut itself off
and no further treatment will be needed. I'm hoping for the best.

4275.8 | Another success story........ | BOOVX2::MANDILE | | Wed Jan 02 1991 09:02 | 11 |
| My dog (seven yr old Airedale) just had a bout with
pancreaitis (sp) and they kept him off of food & water
for a few days.....and he is fine now. Our vet said
it was due to him getting people food, especially pizza
and such.....mom was known to feed him whole slices of
pizza, etc. They put him on Hills Science C/D canned,
(I think) and he recovered.
Our prayers are with you!

4275.9 | SCRUFFY"S BETTER!!!! | TJT01::ARMITAGE | | Wed Jan 02 1991 11:52 | 13 |
| YIPPEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Scruffy came home on Sunday. Can you imagine a Cairn Terrier that
weighs 26lbs! Needless to say he is on a very stick diet. He is
getting Science diet prescription r/d. Only 1/4 of a can twice a day
with no snacking between meals. His liver is also 5 times the size it
should be and that is why he was in so much pain. He did stop
vomitting and has been very tired but I would be too after that ordeal.
The vet feels that with the proper diet and a significant weight loss
he should be ok. Thank you for your concern and prayers. They meant
the world to me and the scruffers. It is going to be a Happy New Year
after all.

4275.10 | Hooray!!! | ESIS::FEASE | Andrea Midtmoen Fease | Wed Jan 02 1991 12:23 | 12 |
| Hi Lisa,
Hooray!!!! I'm so happy to hear about Scruffy.
Bigfoot is on a diet of 1/3 Feline R/D, 1/3 9 Lives and 1/3 Blue
Seal (as are the other two) and he is doing very well. He hasn't been
sick for a year!
Here's hoping Scruffy does as well. Please give him a big hug for
me!
