Hi everyone, sorry so late updating. No obstuction was found on ultrasound. Thank goodness. He does have one enlarged lymph node and mildly enlarged adrenal glands. They said the adrenals could very well be baseline for him, but my vet is going to rule out cushings disease anyway just to sure. The lymph node could be whatever "virus" he has going on. He is home resting. He is on two meds for his tummy and a bland diet for 5 days. I have to watch him for any vomiting or diarreah but so far he has had breakfast at the ER and boiled sirlion and rice here without incident. I have said this before, but I dont know what I would do without you guys. You got me through last night and I really appreciate everyone of you guys!!

OMG...was off site last couple days and see this, I'm so sorry, dear Rosalie :(
Always in great hands here, I see EBN right here, supporting you thru this.
And thankful Frankie's home with you w/meds, got prayers started over him
now, keep us updated and YOU try to relax & rest, you need too! Love y'all <3

I hope Frankie continues to get better and is back to normal soon! What a scary time - Frank and I are sending bulldog hugs and positive thoughts to Frankie.

He was still sleeping when I went to work this morning. He likes to sleep in :babysleep:. He was very groggy and sleepy all day and night yesterday. All he wanted to do was relax. He did eat his lunch and dinner of Boiled sirloin and rice like a champ and kept everything down. I hope he is less groggy and more like himself today. I will update in a few hours.

I'm a little concerned that he seems to not be too interested in drinking his water. I thought yesterday that he was too groggy to be interested, he did drink some yesterday, but today not so much. I have my daughter on high alert. She has to follow him and see if he drinks. If not, I will be calling vet again.

Banks was the same way the first couple days after the overnight stay.... my vet stated it was most likely due to all the IV fluids while in the hospital. he checked her gums and such and she was not dehydrated at all
