On Wednesday I took Theo to the vet suspecting GI stasis. It turned out that it was not stasis, but he had a very full belly. They gave me Reglan and told me to be giving that to him 3 times a day for 4 days. Yesterday was the last day and I didn't give him anymore today. While he was on Reglan he was happy, ate, drank, and pooped most of the day, but from like 12-5 P.M. he would sit hunched up in pain (no tooth grinding). After 5 P.M. he would go back to normal. Today I didn't give him any Reglan and he has been sitting hunched up all day, only sometimes playing. He ate his morning pellets and some hay, but I don't think he has pooped. I think I'm starting to hear a gurgling sound in his abdomen and it is really scaring me! He won't let me give him any tummy massages and I don't know what else to do. Should I go and buy some Gas Drops? I have a little bit of Reglan left, should I give it to him? I have already called the vet and they are going to get back to me, but I just don't have the money to take him in again.
And another problem, now he is only taking hay in from the side of his mouth, not from the front. I meant to get the vet to check his teeth when we were there on Wednesday but I was so worried and forgot to ask. Below is a picture of his teeth that I took on Tuesday the day before he got sick. I just checked his teeth again and the bottom ones are probably 1/4 centimeter long! They are so tiny where the tops one are probably 1/2 centimeter long.
Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!
