1880256 tn?1322569908 Dogs can actually get a form of influenza, which was very prevalent amongst greyhounds in the USA. Dogs have no immunity to this particular virus. While it has caused fatalities, it is treatable if caught early enough - so yes, get your dog to the vet as soon as you can for a diagnosis. If it is canine influenza, you will notice your dog coughing (which can last for up to 30 days) and a green discharge from his nose.
Avatar f tn I saw it today. I liked it. It was pretty suspenseful them finding the cure. They mentioned our drug "Ribavirin" in it, which I found interesting. There's alot of stars in it; Matt Damon, Gwyneth Paltrow, James Earl Jones, That lady from Titanic whose name in my brain fog I can't remember, Elliot Gould (remember him?) and that guy Jude Law (is that his name?), anyhow, brain fog you know...
612551 tn?1450022175 The question of "how well dogs see" has crossed my mind especially when our Westie that loves to chase White Tail Deer on our property, doesn't see a deer, or even several deer, that are perhaps 200 feet away and standing still. I assumed that his, maybe dogs in general, don't have good visual acuity (detail). The following reference strikes me as an excellent reference on the question: http://dog-vision.

Avatar m tn Hi there I would go to gp blood in saliva could be due to chest infection,coughing too much thus bursting tiny vessels in throat(not serious) if you have severe gastric disorder it could be coming from gastric is the blood bright red? If so this is prob due to strain from coughing,is the blood brown in colour if so this is old blood and should be checked out ASAP are you on medications that could be making gums bleed thus leaving slight blood in your salvia.

Avatar f tn I closed before finishing ... sorry. BUN can also be higher (as a normal value for greyhounds), but mainly in female greyhounds rather than males. This can also be elevated due to raw feed too, so one way or another, your greyhound may very well have absolutely normal values - for her. It is definitely a worthwhile process to get the urinalysis done, I would say sooner rather than later.

Avatar m tn Have you been coughing a lot? It could be a number of things (i.e. dry air, excessive coughing or you may have an infection). If you are alarmed by it, maybe you should go get it looked at. Was it all blood or blood tinged?
Avatar n tn WIth hold food @ 50% and feed Bannana's and Plain Yogurt. My dogs LOVE bannana's and Yogurt.. should clear up in a day or 2. Our Greyhounds get this often and so this is what we do.
Avatar f tn No I had a cough and a cold all through the first trimester I was coughing phlem, I was also being sick due to coughing too much I was pretty rough but nothing to worry about just take it easy.
Avatar n tn Okay, I've been fighting a cold for over a week now and have been coughing a lot. I have these episodes where I experience a sharp, stabbing sensation at the base of my throat. This triggers a virtually uncontrollable coughing spell which lasts for about 3 minutes or so. The more I try to fight the coughing, the worse it gets. During this cold, I've been getting these attacks about 5 or 6 per day--usually in the mornings.
13354001 tn?1432155513 I was told yesterday at the hospital that my inflamation of my abdomen is cause of coughing in which coughing is from withdraw. I had a long talk with nurse she lost her daughter to Opiates. She was very serious with me and 4 different ppl came in to congratulate me on an amazing feat of getting off these drugs. Almost like they haven't seen it before. She told me i'm though the thick of it and just give myself another month and i'll be completely back to normal.
Avatar m tn It is normal for our body to experience some illness once in a while because our body is made that way. And you are right in saying that we should be grateful that it is not as debilitating as cancer. Take care and do keep us posted.
Avatar m tn Coughing can be a complication of sinus inflammation that causes post nasal drainage or a lower airway reflex, both of which cause coughing. A very common cause of coughing if when the upper airway infection triggers lower airways reactivity, such as with asthma. In most cases in a 3 year old, physicians will try a trial course of upper airway treatment (antihistamines and possibly antibiotics, if sinusitis is suspected) to if this controls the cough.
Avatar n tn Hello. I've recently had a cold and lately I've noticed that every morning when I spit out some phlegm there are streaks of blood in it. When I started coughing, it wasn't there then but after a few days of coughing really heavily it started. It only happens in the mornings though after waking up. No blood comes up the rest of the day no matter how much I cough. It's been going on four about... I don't know, 2 to 4 days now.

Avatar n tn About two months ago I suddenly developed a cough. Started in cold weather (travelling outside of Florida in cold climate). No other symptoms. Seemed to be only chest tightness, and an almost constant dry cough- rarely productive. I was already taking antihistamine daily for allergies. Went to the doctor after about 30 days. He gave Asmanex, a Medrol 6 day dose pack, Nexium, and upped to an ant-histamine with decongestant (Claritin-D generic equivalent.
