Osiris’ Vet Bills
Donation protected
(You can also call and donate directly to the office if you prefer; [phone redacted] is the vet's number, under Brittany Nelson)
Oct. 7: Osiris started having diarrhea with blood in his stool, so I took him to the vet. Poor baby has giardia, and with that came a hefty bill.
Nov. 6th: Osiris ended up getting rid of his giardia, but was still bleeding and defecating blood. He went to the vet for examination, got bloodwork done and now has to be put on a prescription diet along with probiotics and antibiotics. They’re suggesting to continue this medication, prescription diet, see how he is progressing in a month; if it’s still bad, he has to go get an ultrasound which can range over a grand from what I’m told.
I will be getting estimates, doctors notes, and talk to the vet more on Monday. Sadly it’s the weekend so I can’t get much “proof” right now.
We are working on getting his prescription food, but that on top of his inhalers (he's asthmatic) is getting quite expensive. My boyfriend had to pay the second one (seen above) because I couldn't put more on my (secured) card.
Nov. 9th: I talked to the ultrasound specialist that I was referred to by my vet, and she was wonderful. She called me back at 7:30pm on a Sunday night just to talk to me about Osiris, his history etc. She set up an appointment for the ultrasound Wednesday at 5pm. This is the estimate I asked her to send to my email so I could provide it here.
