Hi,
Been to see him again this morning - he's still living and didn't appear to be in any pain or show any colic symptoms. Vet told my that during the night they thought they might have to end it, he was not looking good, temp was up to 41 and his heart rate 72!!! They went into surgery for another emergency colic, came back out and he was playing with his treat ball and munching his hay - so they re-thought that one!!!
Took him out for a walk in hand this morning, quite weak but the change of scenery seemed to perk him up a bit. From speaking to the vet i think they are just puzzled as to what is going on with him, the antibiotics may be working slightly but there seems to be so much other stuff going on (bloody urine, possible liver problems etc) that he is not responding at all how they would expect. So I am still left in limbo, waiting for news be it good or bad. Tomorrow some very experienced vet is coming to the hospital and the other vets will be back on duty so hopefully they can come to some sort of conclusion. In the meantime I'm sitting tight.
Thank you all for your concern, makes me feel like i'm not going through this on my own.
