pancreatitits help

Posted : 8/20/2015 10:04:23 PM

my internet is terrible where i live, so it took me forever to sign up witb a forum for dogs. Anyways, i originally wanted to ask something else, but since then i have taken the dog in question to a vet, so the question has changed.

The short version is, has anyone here'S dog had pancreatitis? and atlso, she is whining a bit and seems umcomfortable but they didnt prescribe any pain medication. they gave her fluids and told us to bring her back tomorrow. they said they would ideally like to keep her hospitalized but we didnt have enough money.

im wondering if anyone has any good info or advice on the situation, or have any advice about her pain. they said no food only water, so im not sure if an nsaid would even work, not to mention potential risk.

thank you.

First thing first, what I can say, I am not a dog specialist here, but actually, I knew about this pancreatitis issue by reading and also researching some facts about it and even know some people deal with it. It might work and might not work but maybe you need to try.

If the budget is your concern, you need to try the low-fat diet and it will cure faster because the dog needs to eat eventually. Find some dog food that has a low fat, but if you got some budget, you might need to try the Royal Canin Gastrointestinal Low Fat. It is made specifically to cure pancreatitis and you can read a lot of review on their official site, it is proven to treat this issue. But if you opt for low budget commercial food that also purposely made for the low-fat diet, you can check these dog food brands as an alternative or other choices.
