Our weekend was a strange one to say the least....
JD,our younger boy started coughing since Fri nite.... Initially we thought he was choked on food ate earlier or some temporary throat irritations...
But on Sat morning, he kept on coughing even after we took him out of the our room, thinking the air-condition may have cause his throat to be dry... But it persisted and we had to take this little one to the vet...
Vet suggested a few possible reasons, but gave typical cough syrups to relieve him of the coughing...
While JD's condition was under control, Mickey, our bigger boy started to behave strangely...
When we came came from the vet, a patch of 'puke juice' was found in the kitchen floor. Signs that he had vomited...
That nite, after their meals, Mickey practically threw out everything he ate, small portion by small portion..
All in all, he puked about 7 times from Saturday to Sun.... From solid undigested food to gastric juice... it was very disturbing...
Came Sunday, we were prepared to send Mickey to the vet if he still cannot hold down his food.....
Fortunately, the vomiting stopped in Sunday....
We intentionally stopped all food for him till late Sunday evening... just to make sure he system is purged clear...
For dinner, we gave Mickey and JD steamed chicken and broth.... in small portion..
So from evening to about 3am this morning, I had to watch him in case he puke again... And to make sure he don't puke on our bed again...
Well, the great news is.... he is holding down his food well and did not puke since...
All this while, despite the vomiting, Mickey responds well and does not show any signs that his tummy is giving him any problem, he still go about playing with JD and so one.... We are always very proud of this strong boy !!!
As of now, both boys are a ok....
I try not to relate the two incidents, but many would suspect that my possible H1N1 exposure may have jumped to my boys...
Lastly, Cleo is having a slightly runny nose now....
Could it be ???!!....
2 After Thoughts...:
mickey's condition could be related to gastric problem cos it happens to vicki too occassionally. have you considered sending mickey for health screen? we just did for vicki and thank goodness she's been given a clean bill of health!
For the last 2 days, he is back to his old self again...
Tks for the heads up !....
Will keep the option open for now...
