On Monday, my ma dropped me off at the animal hospital on her way to work.
She left me there all day while she was at her office.
At the animal hospital, they completed an ultrasound, and I was examined by a cardiologist.
The cardiologist drained 200 milliliters (0.0528344 US liquid gallon) of fluid out of my chest cavity.
They received my blood work & thyroid test results from Saturday. My body is handling the medicines I am on and I do not have any issue with my kidneys. The doctor increased my dosage of the diuretic I am on.
I will be reexamined in three weeks: x-rays, blood pressure test, blood work.
My medicines are now: Morning = .625 mg Pimobendin (CHF medicine to strengthen muscular contractions of the heart & dilate blood vessels)
2.50 mg Enacard (CHF & blood pressure medicine)
20 mg Lasix (diuretic)
Mid-day = 10 mg Lasix
Evening = 10 mg Lasix
.625 mg Pimobendin
1.25 mg Enacard

I feel okay, tired mostly, trying not to be sad.
My sister was mean to me until Thursday - hating my scent upon returning from the animal hospital.
