Why is my dog still vomiting, wanting food, and losing weight?

Question

For the past two weeks my dog has been vomiting and hospitalised for a bug for several days. She's been a little constipated. X-rays and barium came back clear with food leaving her tummy a little slow apparently. Her bloods for pancreas related issues came back normal. We thought we turned a corner but she keeps vomiting, it's different though, immediately after she wants more food. She's taking tummy settlers and antibiotics. I'm so worried. She's lost over a kilo in 2 weeks. Pet's info: Dog | Jack Russell Terrier | Female | spayed | 4 years and 7 months old | 19 lbs

I am sorry that Daisy is so sick,. It sounds like you have a good vet working hard to make Daisy feel better. I know you said her barium study came back normal however if she is still vomiting it might be time for her to have additional testing. I would recommend if they have not done already blood work to look at the liver , kidney and white/red blood cell function. Also could she have gotten into a toxin or have a foreign object in her abdomen that the barium did not see. Unfortunately medicine is very frustrating because it can take a while to determine the cause of illness. Also I would make sure Daisy does not have a virus like parvo or parasites. I would recommend continuing to discuss options with your vet who is taking care of daisy and I hope she starts feeling better soon!!
