I went to the hospital and they gave me iv fluids and tests my blood tests came back high white blood test and and my potassium and magnesium was low they are trying to replace my potassium and MG with meds but I cannot keep them down should I call the VA hospital and tell them what I know now that my cat is back or are the symptoms just a chance thing?
