gastroenteritis
Just letting all of you know that Purina has come out with a powdered probiotic called Fortiflora that I have seen first hand help some dogs with bad cases of IBD. They make a feline version too but I haven't heard any feedback about that yet but I know of 2 dogs so far that were suffering with terrible bouts of gastroenteritis and colitis and they have been using this product and the diarrhea has stopped.
s Disease or one of the Irritable Bowel / Gastroenteritis conditions. Night sweats, Nausea, Abdominal Pain are also associated with these conditions.
My 2yr old bulldog was healthy & got really poorly 4 weeks ago been to the vets 4 times & then they kept her in for 3 days & treated her for gastroenteritis she went into shock & her heart collapsed & died all on her own.
I wasn't there for & feel like she died thinking I didnt love her so she gave up.

My daughter is 14 months old and she has has watery diarrhea and vomitting. When she was born she was perfectly healthy, but once I had to return to work I began to give her formula and that's when she began to have these complications. She began to have watery diarrhea and vomit. I took her to the doctor and they said she had gastroenteritis, but it's been a while now and she is still the same? Does anyone know what could possibly be wrong? Thank you.
I went up there and took her to the doctor and she was basically told is was a stomach virus (gastroenteritis) drink plenty of fluids and it should go away in a couple of days but when I look up Gastroenteritis it says that it's common in people with weaken immune system caused by HIV.
She took her 3 month birth control shot the morning before but I'm sure that didn't cause Gastroenteritis. My question is should I be concerned about HIV at this point.
Hello! I seem to have unfortunately caught gastroenteritis. I was given Ondansentron and it helped immensely. However, I can't sleep. I'm so wired and my stomach still hurts but luckily, no side effects. Is this normal? Is it the gastroenteritis or the drug?
If you are passing stools a lot and have stomach pain then in all probability you have either food poisoning or gastroenteritis. Take an OTC lactobacillus preparation and yoghurt with your meals. Drink plenty of fluids. Eat light, do not stay hungry but eat simple things like toast, porridge, cereals, crackers etc. Take ORS. Take over the counter antacid and antiemetic (this SOS for vomiting). Watch out for a day or two with this treatment.
On day 7 of a severe case of gastroenteritis. Everything seems to have calmed down, but once I try and eat anything stomach cramps start, which are unbearable. Sometimes followed by diarrhoea. Is this normal after a severe case of gastroenteritis or do I need to see my G.P again?
May be an abscess, infection, swollen lymph node. Either way, yes, you should have the Vet check it. May have to be lanced and the dog given antibiotics.
Hi, Please bring your senior dog to the vet for bloodwork. The symptoms you have mentioned, along with the dogs age, remind me of the same thing that my 15 year old yorkie was doing. She was diagnosed with kidney disease. Decreased appetite and trembling are both signs of kidney failure.
Your dog may or may not have kidney issues, but the trembling, (shaking) you are describing, is a sign of pain or discomfort. Your dog really needs to be evaluated by a vet.
No sir. Please see a veterinarian. There are a variety of reasons dogs have constipation and that must be diagnosed by a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine and proper treatment given.
Human meds are almost never proper to give to pets. Doses are different, reactions are different and in some cases even an innocent med can cause death of a pet.
Please consult a D.V.M.
I went to the doc after 5 days. He said its just viral gastroenteritis. I looked up the condition and it says you have vomiting and/or diarrhea, but i have neither. I am worried it is appendicitis, but the appendix is on the right side, not left. I am really in pain but i am taking my meds as described. Does this sound like viral gastroenteritis to you?
I am in such severe pain just laying here typing this and barely moving.. Please help. Thank you.
Hello,
Diarrhea and vomitings can be provoked either by an intestinal infection or by illness somewhere else in the body. When they begin suddenly, the problem is usually gastroenteritis (or stomach flu), most often caused by a virus and sometimes by bacteria and parasites.
Gastroenteritis is an irritation and infection of the digestive tract. It can often cause sudden and sometimes violent upsets and may be confused with spastic colitis.
It sounds like a bout of Gastroenteritis (stomach flu).
I don' t think your FTM HRT has a role in this.
Can you post some details, regarding your history of
Epilepsy? Treatment, meds and any other details.
Not that I believe, it has much to do with your symptoms
in your post, but perhaps I can offer you some further
insight.
specialist he ruled out the collitis and said it was gastroenteritis he told me to continue the levaquin i was prescribed. its been about a month now and my stool varies with every deffacation from semi hard to pure liquid to very loose im wondering how i can repair this and get back to normal. i also have had pains in my lower left abdominal region almost like i am constipated but even after a bowel movement it it still there.
It can be quite uncomfortable, and usually, unless the dog is bred back on her next heat cycle, the pyometra returns. It is usually reserved only for treatment of dogs where it is extremely important to someone to preserve a bloodline, since it is not a guaranteed treatment (life-saving spaying may still be necessary) and it is so uncomfortable for the dog to go through it.
