Hi;
It has been a long, long time since I have been on this newsgroup due to
health and a serious auto accident so here I am with a question.
Does anyone know if pancreatitus in dogs is treatable? I had a 5 year old
miniature poodle that we just lost on 3-13-08. back in 1902 she had various
problems. She was taken to our local vet and was given many blood tests
which showed high enzyme levals and some other high readings. Our local vet
referred her to a large animal center, a large hospital in Columbus/, Ohio,
They took additional test including an ultrsound to check for liver problem
and didn't see a problem she was returned to our local vet who treated her
with antibiotics and a few other drugs. After that she seemed much improved
although subsequent tests still showed high enzyme levels and thought to be
suseptable to high readings. Everything seemed to be alright until about
Feb. or early March. She was returned to Columbus and hospitalized again.
She was infused with medication and fed intravenously etc. On a Monday 3-11
they called and informed us that she was ready to come home, that she was
eating, drinking and keeping it down. I picked her up and she appeared happy
and well. After coming home she started vomiting every time she ate or
drank. She could not keep anything down. Not food, water or her medication,
nothing. We returned her to the hospital Tuesday morning for further
treatment. Then Wednesday morning 3-13 they called and informed us that she
had passed away.
Finally here is my question:
Is pancreatitus always fatal or or could this be because of misdiagnosis
causing delay in correct diagnosis and treatment that it became too late to
cure?
Any comment appreciated.

Pancreatitis is very serious, and indeed can be fatal. I know of a dog
with chronic pancreatitis, and each attack, feared to be her last.
Fortunately, last week, she dodged the bullet again.
There can be a tendency for some dogs to have a chronic pancreatic
condition.
I would say having a necropsy done should answer your questions. Any timean
animal dies with a question, a necropsy performed should be done to avoid
those haunting doubts after the fact. Peace of mind is a good thing.
A necropsy would have answered those questions that no one in a newsgroup
can touch |

It is treatable. I dont' have experience with it but i'm near
Columbus. Sometimes diet plays a part. Were they feeding her
something different in the hospital? I know it can take a long time to
get under control and can always flare up >> Stay informed about: Pancreatitus? |

It's my impression that Pancreatitis is actually inflammation of the
pancreas as a symptom, which may be inflammed because of many reasons,
including possibly pancreatic cancer. The causes may be treatable, or they
might not. Necropsy would have told the story, Pancreatitis is a
description of a symptom and not the underlying problem >> Stay informed about: Pancreatitus? |

First, if you know Columbus you may be familiar with the facility, it is
MedVet in Worthington, a great facility.
As for feeding for the most part they were feeding IV. As for what they
tried in solid food, I don't know. All I do know is that they seem to have
tried very hard to save her. I guess that it was just too late to get a
handle on it.

I assumed it was MedVet, I literally mortgaged my farm to them when they
were at their old location. Dedicated, devoted, well qualified, highly
respected, board certified Specialists in just about every fascet of dog
specialties.
I know your dog was in good hands, and if your dog could have been saved,
they were the ones who could have done it.
I've slept many a night in their waiting area.
I still hate their corporate policies that seems as if they whisk your dog
away , debit your credit card, and spit the dog out when finished with your
poor credit card emptied.
Their corporate policies seem so cold and impersonal. But the care is good. >> Stay informed about: Pancreatitus? |

Yes.. Dexter goes to MedVet for his allergy vaccines and i had his
eyes/cataracts evaluated to make sure he wasnt in any pain. The eye
doc wanted me to bring him back about every 4 months for a recheck. I
asked how much a recheck was and they said we do the same thing each
time.... so over $250. I can't afford that. I do take him to a
holistic vet near there.. north worthing pet clinic. Dr. Carlson does
acupuncture and chiropractic. That has been very helpful to my almost
16 yr old. Their prices are reasonable.. don't break the bank on a
regular basis. >> Stay informed about: Pancreatitus? |

HI;
About what the hospital fed Nikki in solid food, after some time to think
they did feed her some Hills Prescription Diet canned. I don't remember
which one since there is more than one type designated by two letters and
each is specific for different conditions. Also they had me come up and try
to get her to eat. They suggested things like rice and some boiled chicken
or turkey, boiled lean ground beef and things like that. In other words
things that were bland and easy to digest. Looking back now those were the
most precious moments that I had with her. God we still miss her so.

EDDY;
Yes, I too noticed that they are quick on the finances but as you said it is
worth every dime to get such good care. One good thing is that we were
fortunate enough to have kind of preplanned for things like this with and
for pets. Quite some time back we used to have Petshealth pet insurance but
slowly they got to the point that they paid less and less. We got tired of
arguing with them every time we had a claim that we decided to drop them and
we started a separate account just for that purpose and used what we would
have paid in premiums and deposited that in the account. It sure came in
handy now because like you say there is nothing cheap there. One other thing
also as you said they do seem to turn them out maybe too quickly. Like I
said in my first post they sent her home on a Monday and we had to take her
back Tuesday. Maybe it would have been better if they would have kept her a
little longer and continued therapy. But who knows it may not have helped
either. Hindsight is always 20/20
Thanks for your nice comments;

I am so sorry for your loss. I am struggling with pancreatitis in one
of my dogs as well; also autoimmune disease. Pancreatitis is a very
difficult disease to manage and is not uncommonly fatal.
The Hills Diet your dog was fed was most likely i/d, which is what my
dog is eating. It's supposed to be good for this, though my dog does a
little better on a combination of this and some other foods than on the
i/d alone.
Again, I just wanted to say I am sorry for your loss :(
