Unhappy Baileys vet appointment.

Heres the scoop.
To me it doesn’t look too good at all, but after an hour at the vet with Bailey they found that his heart rate was 60 bpm when he was calm and relaxed and his blood pressure was normal, however, the techs took him out side and ran with him a few minutes and they tested everything again and his heart rate went up to a whopping 68bpm but his blood pressure went through the roof.
They did the thyroid panel and are checking for diabetes as well, I’ll know the results come Monday.
I brought my camera with the little videos and she wants me to email them to her and she is forwarding them on to a neurological specialist, for his take on the staggering, along with all of Baileys report from today and results from his blood work.
She really hopes for our sake it is his thyroid because its easily treatable, however, if it isn’t she said it could be a long hard road.
Im worried.
Bailey is on minimal excersise orders and I have to try to keep him from getting too excited for the next little while until we know whats going on.:sad:

Lets all pray and keep our fingers crossed for little B, and hope it is indeed hypothyroidism
