Hi, My Hermanns has diagnosed with gout after high uriric acid in blood test. This was noticed after she had a difficult spay due to trapped egg last year. Vet has prescribed Allopurinol that i have to give her every other day... the level of dosage was found after continued bllod tests and spacing the days medication was given. Her levels are still at the high end. She seems fine in herself but she will have to be on this for the rest of her life. I havent checked a second opinion yet. Hope this helps?So, gout was presumed, not diagnosed with a high degree of certainty. I'm not saying this is inappropriate; that is the way many things are diagnosed and subsequently treated. However, it does sound as though the diagnosis is far from set in stone. What medication was used for the presumed gout?
