Daily Activity Interupted

Just a very quick note to let you know I have not been able to observe and/or take part in the User Group quite as much as normal in recent days. I usually check-in every day to read through posts and respond where appropriate, but life has sent me some angst recently. My greyhound, Sally, rescued by us two years ago, has had her annual bloods undertaken and her CREA is high - thankfully, her BUN and phos are normal, but it's still a worry for a six yr old. Anyway, we are having a few further tests done including a urine microalbuminuria test, which can diagnose kidney issues earlier than a blood sample. Hopefully, this is just a hiccup, as greyhounds do ordinarily have higher CREA due to their muscle mass. I'll update in due course, but in the meantime, please forgive me for not being quite so diligent in the Group. Tony
