Our abdominal ultrasound today was normal for Alphie and Ashton and cardiodoppler for Alphie was a grade 3 mitral regurgitation and grade 1 tricupid regurgitation. I'm so worried. Vet said it was a grade 1A cardiac failure.. apparently the lowest grade, but *still* a cardiac failure... She's on supplements, not medication and I'm told to monitor. What can I expect from this? I was told this is due to old age, but I do suspect it's from her dental health.Which ever cause anyway, I was given more omega 3, a heart/aging formula, which is SO costly especially when it contains stuff I could supplement her separately.. I'm so afraid she would collapse on me, or faint, or stop breathing...
i wonder why she's not given any medication and just some supplements. Grade 3 sounds not too mild to me....
