My 10 year old Jack Russell Spayed Female has had episodes ...
Sent to Pet Experts December 08 05:10 PM

My 10 year old Jack Russell Spayed Female has had episodes of obvious discomfort. Panting, pacing, shaking and hiding. The first episode was several months ago and lasted several days ending in hospitalization and fluids. Ultrasound, x-rays and blood work were all normal except for a slightly elevated lipase and amylase. In the past 2 weeks she has had 3 more episodes that last 30 min. to 3 hours. She has no diarria or vomiting or fever. We are going to run more bloodwork this week but are concerned. Any suggestions?

Optional Information:
Age: 10; Female; Breed: Jack Russell Terrier

Already Tried:
Blood work, xrays, ultrasound. Low fat diet.
