Numbers still climbing

It has been 1 month since Gabby was hospitalized to get 48 hours of fluids, so it was time for another blood test. Unfortunately her numbers (Creatinine and BUN specifically) are continuing to rise. Going up about 75% from where they were when last checked. We had hoped they would level out because we started the fluid therapy, but the dr. said that they are actually going up at a rate a little faster than typically seen. We've increased her fluids from 3x a week to every other day. Not a drastic increase, but if you ask her it is. I don't think I would much care for being poked with a needle every other day.
