Harley's November Results

Would you believe it, since I made Harleys vets appointment a week ago yesterday he`s sneezed less and less and seemed a lot better.

Today he starts wet sneezing and 5 minutes later Mark rings!!

White blood count high again, 15 this time started at 20 the first time he ever went, then 17 then 12.

So it`s quite high, but only in hetrofil which Mark says is just so general inflammation infection type indicator he just can`t tell. monocytes normal, everything else normal.

Going to see if this wet sneezing progresses or just stops.

Swab results due back tomorrow afternoon.

If they show nothing most likely treat with antihistamines, if they show bacteria then antibiotics.

Last time when his white count was normal I had a feeling it was an 'in the moment' reading and could easily have been high or normal depending on the day and time!

So disappointed it`s high again, relieved it`s not showing anything else, relieved he`s got no worse in fact got a lot better with actually no treatment at all and just see what the swab brings!!
 
Fingers crossed that tomorrow's results finally give an answer to what's going on with Harley and then the right meds can be given and he can stop sneezing ((hugs))

Och poor wee guy, and poor you! Looking forward to good swab results tomorrow x
 
Thanks. Partly I hope the swab shows something so we can treat it, but I think it won`t! If that`s the case we`re all clueless as to what causes the high white blood count and think it will have to stay that way.

I have a happy little Harley that eats like a piggy and just sneezes on and off, some days not at all!! LOl
 
Doesn't sound too bad so far but yeah understand what you mean, its the not knowing, hope the results give some answers x
 
Hope the results are good tomorrow and you get to the bottom of this. Thinking of you and wee Harlley.
 
Hope the antihistimines are enough then, and it's not something too serious. Good luck x
 
I think we ruled out it being anything serious.

I think Mark is as frustrated and puzzled as me, maybe just one of those things! Typical Harley lol
 
Harley certainly keeps you going. Glad there is nothing seriously amiss and hope his swab comes back with nothing further.
