Monday Update on Tyson
Update from Tyson’s foster mom, Carmen:
I spoke with Dr. Maddox and here is what was said – He received the authorization last night to do the culture. They went ahead with the procedure and Tyson did fine….yea!! Dr. Maddox had concerns with this procedure and was glad Tyson came through. They should have the test results within a few days. His respiration is back down in the 30s again, not in the 50s. Dr. Maddox did notice yesterday a muscle twitch. He has concerns because that is a sign of distemper, but Tyson has not had one since yesterday morning. Just something they are watching. They have not started a fungal treatment because it will be very hard on Tyson and they do not want to go this route until they know for sure it is fungal pneumonia.
Prayers and positive thoughts are working so please keep them coming for this little furball! We are only short $133 for Tyson’s 72 hour stay. If Tyson needs to stay longer, we will need more funding for that so please keep checking the blog for his progress.
