Misty has had diarrhoea now for 8 months. Sometimes she has red blood in it, though this could be from anal fissures rather than anything sinister. Lomotil doesn't help. A hypoallergenic diet doesn't help. The only thing that does help for even a short time is antibiotics, but as soon as the course is finished the diarrhoea returns. All blood and stool tests have come back normal, except for the most recent one which showed high WBC- but that's hardly surprising really! The vets said she is the healthiest sick dog they've ever seen.
She is now recovering from exploratory surgery. They found inflammation in her intestines, which they have biopsied. But that could be an artefact from having diarrhoea so long.
Let's hope Misty finally gets some answers!
