    Thanks so much for all your advice! She had been doing great these past two days with the vet’s diet, and we had an appointment scheduled with internal medicine in about 4-5 days. Unfortunately this morning she didn’t want to eat/drink and had diarrhea. Now it’s 13pm and she’s eating and drinking again, we’re thinking about scheduling an appointment with another vet specialist this afternoon to get a second opinion since her internal medicine appointment isn’t for some days. @Susan I will ask this vet to look at her medical record and for a biopsy + endoscopy because we really want a definite diagnosis so that she can get on the road to recovery. I’ll ask about the helycobacter bacteria as well. I just feel like a need to get a second vet opinion since her regular one has given us a gastritis diagnosis at first and some others before suggesting she might have IBD, and I really want to make sure we get to the right diagnosis. Thanks again to all for the advice!
