Natasha, who is 17, had dental surgery about this time last year. This was after her CRF diagnosis was made. At the time she had an elevated white cell count (indicating an infection somewhere) in addition to the elevated BUN and Creatinine levels from her kidney trouble. Other blood chemistry values were also out of spec. TED delayed her dental several times, wanting to get her kidney values back to normal first (didn't want to give her anesthesia while her kidneys were having trouble), but we weren't able to do that. Finally I talked them into going ahead with the dental. It turned out that what was thought to be a badly needed cleaning was the root of a lot of the trouble - literally. Several of her teeth had dead and rotting roots! Obviously these teeth were removed, which caused all signs of infection to go away. Her kidney values went back to what's become normal for her (BUN normal, Creatinine slightly elevated) too. Natasha came through it all without problem, although she was a little irritated at being pilled (antibiotic) for several days afterward. You and Frank have our support, but given my experience with Tasha, I bet it will all turn out just fine in the end! Thank you so much, Jeanne. This was a very comforting post. -- Marina, Frank and Nikki marina (dot) kurten (at) pp (dot) inet (dot) fi Pics at http://uk.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/frankiennikki/ and http://community.webshots.com/user/frankiennikki |

Many, many good vibes heading the way of a very, very special cat in Finland. You aren't the only one who'll be worrying that day. Frank is very dear to a wee family over here on the other side of the North Sea. Thanks, Helen. I'm glad to hear he is special to you, too. He certainly is very special to me. -- Marina, Frank and Nikki marina (dot) kurten (at) pp (dot) inet (dot) fi Pics at http://uk.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/frankiennikki/ and http://community.webshots.com/user/frankiennikki |

On the plus side is the fact that sometimes getting dental problems cleared up can lower the BUN level. Purrs for both of you. Yes, I'd managed to forget all about that until I read Jeanne's post. Maybe it's that root canal that is elevating Frank's BUN. Thank you for the purrs. I'm calming down already. -- Marina, Frank and Nikki marina (dot) kurten (at) pp (dot) inet (dot) fi Pics at http://uk.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/frankiennikki/ and http://community.webshots.com/user/frankiennikki |
