I know many of you had to deal with CHF so I was wondering if anyone could answer a few questions. I had to bring Morgan up to my vet today for possible CHF (I am a wreck right now :sad3: ). Morgan is in an oxygen chamber now and my vet gave her lasex (you could hear the fluid in her lungs).
I understand that every case is different and CHF can have many symptoms. Anyway:
How well do ratties in general respond to lasix? Is this an injection?
If that doesn't work what other meds might help? I read enalapril and/or atenolol
If it is CHF how long can ratties (comfortably) live with it? What are your experiences?
Morgan's sister died of CHF not too long ago.
Thanks!
