Immune-mediated haemolytic anaemia Pt 1

May 7, 2015. This 4-year-old Maltese is very thin and anaemic. Two vets had blood tests done in March 2015. Immune-mediated haemolytic anaemia - low red blood cells, haemoglobin and platelets. One year ago, my blood test showed similar findings and this owner was under the care of a friend as the owner was staying overseas.

The friend's first vet had also diagnosis demodecosis in the ears. 

The dog was having diarrhoea "on and off" and the friend took him to the vet nearer to his home in March. Now he brought the dog to me.  

He switched diet when the dog had "on and off" diarrhoea but now the dog is very thin. The skin is full of pustules. The dog is in-patient at Toa Payoh Vets now.
