Well, I have been playing phone tag with the vet for a couple of days, he'd call me and I would be gone, I'd call him and he'd be on a farm call or in surgery, but I finally managed to catch him this morning. He said that they don't think there is actually anything seriously wrong with Amber. However, he wants another blood sample in a couple of months and if her numbers are still low (and they will be, it has been over a year since her first test) he wants to talk to me about a marrow sample. I don't know if I am going to let him do that or not. I know it is incredibly painful. His former instructor also said something about me taking her off homemade food, citing potential heart issues, I am guessing from taurine deficiency. My vet doesn't really think it is needed, he knows I supplement properly. Part of me wants to call that immunologist and tell her that 1. taurine deficiency screws up a lot more than the heart and 2. I know what I am doing, thank you very much. However, there is no point in being combative, and besides, she doesn't know me so there is no way for her to know that I am not just somebody throwing a bunch of scraps in a bowl and calling it balanced food. I am aggravated that we still don't have a cause. I don't think that its "nothing" because she isn't just on the low end of the normal spectrum for her neutrophils, judging by my research her neutropenia would be classified between moderate and severe.
On a happier note, things are about to get better around here. I finally got my degree in computer programing, and I landed a job that pays two dollars more per hour than my last job with plenty of opportunities for raises (ever six months if I keep my stats where they should be), so hopefully, my financial troubles are over. I start Monday. I may start taking Amber in for monthly or bi-monthly checkups once I get caught up with my finances in order, since we still don't know what is wrong with her. It might be prudent to do so.
