Hi Apple, I'm glad to hear Lolo is feeling better. Sounds though like you're not too sure about the tests. I will read that site myself when I'm done with this msg. Jade is feeling much better and has been eating normally. Whatever was wrong has passed. Big bucks to the vet for blood and urine tests, but that's okay, it's worth my peace of mind. Jade is about 10yrs and no bloodwork for a yr so time for it anyway. Only thing wrong is crystals in the urine. After seeing you list Lolo's test results, I just called my vet for a copy of the blood and urine results so I can compare also.
Hopefully, Lolo just got into something that upset her tummy. I think that must of been what happened with Jade. With outdoor kitties, one only has so much control. I'm glad you're able to keep an eye on Lolo's bowel movements. Jade does her business outside so I never know if she's ill until she actually shows signs whereas if she used a litter box, I might be aware of a problem sooner. I hope Loreena continues to improve!! So much worry when our girls are ill. Like you, I get very upset and obsess about Jade almost every minute until she begins to act like herself again.
(((Hugs)))
Ps Very good site,I guess I will find what I need there.Going back there...
The values are the ones that came together with the real results ,for a basic comparisom.And yes, they are from a Brazilan lab, the one were the test was done
Not sure if its the way it works in your country.But those charts always change according to the methodology used on the essay
Not that I know much about those but I learned a few basic rules about the most commom ones at University,a long time ago ...
Red and white blood series,RH,urine 1, search for parasites (Poo) spermogram .. but all for humanes
Results of the chart I posted for are in / mm3 for leucogram, mg/dl for ureia and U/L for fosfatase ( both last ok)
I will search more about,thanks for taking time in helping me,I will try those sites as well. Kisses!
hi Apple, I'm not sure the values you are listing from a lab in Brazil???
this site gives you info on how to read lab results and their meanings, but the values are all US measures....may need to convert(?)
as far as this chart reveals...for a feline platelets can vary from 190-800/ul
so if the same measurement chart is used in Brazil than I would think Lolo is within healthy range...read up for yourself, I'm afraid I dont know alot about lab results....other than what I deal with here in Canada..good luck hon. glad she is eating again!!!

Ureia and alcaline fosfatase ok
ERITROGRAM just RDW 18% n.r 10.5 to 14.5%
All the not mentioned itens are ok
Appetite is better but she still waits and beg for tasteful stuff- its being hard not to give her that but I 'll try for today.
Hope she wont decide capturing a bird as chicken substitute ...
First sign she was slightly better was see her chasing a cockroach !
Some poo today abour 9 to 10 Pm - not bad! 2 days without doing that - she was eating amost nothing...
Behaving more normal today, but she not herself yet.Maybe one or two days more - I'm not being myself this last time either,our routine is a little shaken ( hours at home) No mood for going to SP set eye doct for me ( dont worry, just routine,my eyes are fine)
Is Jade ok now?
Blood test brings 2 or 3 small things that make me a little unconfortable. I will post them here since you probably have a lot of experience with those
LEUCOGRAM
Leucocites ( total) 10.700 normal rate 6.000 to 17.000 - ok
Bastonetes 10% 1070 normal rate 0 to 1/ 0 to 2
Linfocites 14% 1498 normal rate 20 to 50/20 to 50
all the others are ok
Plaquetes are a little lower as well 217.000 n.r 250.000 to 500.000
Does anybody here knows if that means some trouble or disease?All I know related to few plaquetes is that can represent problems in blood coagulation
Vet had said results were ok .For reasoms already mentioned I didnt read the results at that moment and I dont want to look for her again now
Should I trusth her?
