My 9 year old dog had been falling over, i took her to the vet, he said she was having back pain/spasms. He put her on Rymadil. A few months later i came home from work and she was panting and acting very strange. i took her to the vet. She died in the waiting room. They brought her back to life. They said she had congestive heart failure, they took her off of the oxygen for a few minutes and gave her a diaretic to get rid of some of the fluid. She started to "turn blue" again...they said do you want us to "keep trying". i didnt know there were drugs for CHF that she could have lived on, so i said no. Could she have lived, and if so, how long do you think (in years). Thanks. (Very sad and i also feel guilty thinking i could have let them save her)
