I just talked to Ian, the vet. He gave me the results of Troy's blood test. The liver values are slightly elevated, but nothing to worry about just yet - but still good that we stopped the Previcox.
However, the kidney values are elevated too, and enough to warrant further testing. So Ian has asked me to bring in a urine sample tomorrow so they can do further testing!
I hope it is nothing serious!
Luckily, Troy has been fine without Previcox and isn't limping at all at the moment! He has been very picky with food over the last couple of days, but I think that's just because he expected to get other stuff than kibble, because he always ate all the wet food or other additions and just left the kibble (whereas before he'd leave wet food etc as well). So I stayed strong and didn't give him anything else other than one dollop of Natures Harvest on his kibble, and this morning he has finally eaten all the kibble! Hopefully that'll do the job now. Of course, if there is a kidney problem, then we will have to look at the diet again!
