yesterday
She finally went lower yesterday evening and not too bad AMPS today.
Cardiologist visit today, over 30 minute away, I am more stressed than she is (she does not know, of course). I might give her some Gabapentin that I still have to calm her in advance. MAybe I should take some too :eek: not a good idea to be driving then, I know.
Please send good vibes our way, i hope they do not find something too bad on the echo.
 
Good luck with your appointment today. Sending PAWsitive vibes.

Thank you! @Karolina KJ & Nestle @Bandit's Mom @Diane Tyler's Mom GA @Karen and Chispa @bluesunshine :bighug:
So, she was very relaxed, did not meow even once in the car, she was in the sun and very calm. Once there she was very calm and nice, the vet said she growled a little bit to show that she did not approve and "might even have hissed once".
Everything is normal, no enlargement, no clots on the echo, nothing. I am so relieved.
The cardiologist said that she would keep the Plavix for about one month, start decreasing it in 2 weeks, she also said to try the Bupe once a day and see if she's fine. She examined her leg and saw not muscle stiffness, the skin is normal (that was one of my fears at first, that her skin would fall off, necrosis, muscle stuck, all that), no apparent pain. :cat: I am very happy.
I was almost crying as I was leaving, there was a woman who was leaving without her cat and was sobbing, the cat did not make it. I wanted to hug her but did not, but she really touched me.
 
Cecile, I am so glad that the visit went well and the news was all positive! But how upsetting to see the other woman in distress. I've witnessed such scenes a couple of times in my years of countless vet visits, and it has always stuck with me. We are empathetic souls, and many of us unfortunately have been there ourselves. Sending you supportive hugs, and prayers for the stranger whose kitty has gone ahead. :bighug::bighug::bighug::bighug::bighug:
 
Hi Cecile, I am so happy to read your update after Bella’s appointment. And she was such a good girl.
Now you can have a gabapentin to rest tonight after your day. ;)

I’m so sorry about the woman you encountered. We all know the pain she was in. Sending you and her prayers for strength and healing :bighug::bighug::bighug:

Such great news! Bella is a true fighter!

I followed a man out of the vet last time who was just carrying an empty leash. Broke my heart.
 
Big sigh of relief on that cardio appointment. :bighug: And you have a base line for normal should she need to be tested again - but I hope not! And of course no idea why it happened.

My vet tended to have the sad appointments end of day, and had a candle lit on the front desk, so people would know what happened. :(
 
Such great news!
Thank you for the update and keeping us all in the loop. We appreciate it.

Sending prayers to the woman who lost her kitty today. May s/he fly high cat_wings>o

Wishing you a very good night meow :cat:

The appointment was in the ER hospital, they also have specialty vets there. I am not sure what happened but that broke my heart.
