🐶My Beloved Dog Senta-kun ⑥ | Fluid had accumulated... Pulmonary edema discovered! The unease and bad premonition I felt yesterday were spot on

As I thought, fluid had accumulated.
" #PulmonaryEdema "

Yesterday evening,
after it started raining and his breathing became labored,
even after a day passed, his breathing remained fast.

While staying at my boyfriend's parents' house to look after his family (who are in critical condition),
during my stay,
when the visiting helper came at 9:00 this morning,
he got excited and went to greet them again!

As a result, he started coughing...
and his breathing became labored again...
However, it didn't end there this morning;
his breathing was more labored than yesterday,
he started panting with his tongue out,
and even though it was only a little bit, his tongue color looked
more purple than pink.

Was it cyanosis, which I had seen online?!

As expected,
just as I thought I should take him to the hospital,
the visiting helper, who also had experience
raising a dog with heart disease,
introduced me to a good nearby hospital.🙏

I immediately rushed out of the house saying "I'm off!"
Although it was extremely crowded,
I had him examined by a female vet
who explained things very carefully and clearly,
and I also called the hospital near my house
where he was examined for heart disease the other day to explain the situation,
and after blood tests and an X-ray,
he received an emergency injection & a few days' worth of medicine,
and we returned home.

Knowing for sure that the reason his breathing was rough
was pulmonary edema
actually made me feel relieved.

His medication has increased starting today,
which is tough on both Senta and our household budget,
but his condition is definitely improving
and he is getting his energy back,
so I'm really glad I went.🥺🙏

Once I return home, I have to go to the hospital
near my house again,
so it's a lot of hospital visits, but
as long as Senta keeps trying,
I will do my best along with him.୧⃛(๑⃙⃘◡̈๑⃙⃘)୨⃛

The hospital I visited today is in Chigasaki City, Kanagawa Prefecture
【Shonan Animal Welfare Hospital】
〒253-0044
13-16 Shineicho, Chigasaki City, Kanagawa Prefecture

I showed up without calling for a first-time visit,
but they kindly accepted us.
It is extremely crowded, so there is a possibility
you might wait for over an hour,
but they were very attentive,
and above all, it was a relief that it was easy on the wallet.

This time,
・First-time visit
・X-ray
・Blood test
・Diuretic injection
・3 days' worth of diuretic medication
This cost ¥14,000 (PayPay).

※Since there is practically no parking,
please use the coin parking lots on both sides.
It was an injection that took over 2 hours,
so it cost ¥2,000,
if it is not an emergency and you have time to spare,
it is safer to park in a cheaper parking lot nearby
before coming.☺️✨
