The signs you describe are very vague and common to many illnesses - weakness, reduced appetite increased thirst are not enough to diagnose any specific condition. Please contact your vets office for clarification of what was found during the physical exam and to confirm what treatments have been prescribed. You are entiltled to seek a second opinion from an alternatve vet if you feel he is not responding or is still unwell
