today we went for the complete blood count, ended up getting sub-q fluids (which did perk her up some) and some to take home. for some reason my current vet oncologist is anti-ringer's solution for cancer, but i couldn't find out why via the receptionist over the phone. so the dog just got saline, and i have to remember to find out.

she's also to stay on the antibiotic, partly in case it's helping the eye and partly prophylactically, in case her white blood cell count turns out low.

tomorrow i should have the results of the cbc, of which i am of course frightened.

meanwhile her heart rate seemed good, and we finally can't palpate any of her lymph nodes. so that's the good parts.
