I took Francis for his "well baby" check up last Friday and last night the vet called to tell me Francis has roundworm(!) and hypothyroid. He's been a tiny bit more sleepy but I was putting it down to the increasing heat. Also, his stools were only a tiny bit more runny in the last couple of days.
Francis is at increased risk for picking up junk from the ground as he puts his nose right to the ground to sniff his way around, he no longer lifts his head to see. Swell.
So now we're going to do Panacur C and he had a complete thyroid panel drawn at the vet's.
The funny thing is that Francis has hypothyroid, glaucoma and a parasitic worm and my mother has hypothyroid, glaucoma, and she picked up some nasty bug over the weekend!! Maybe she was sniffing the same ground as Francis.
She was less than thrilled when I brought it up.
