My Goiter
I suffer from chronic constipation. I am on a high protein diet to control my blood sugar levels. I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes in the fall of 2004. The high protein food causes me to become constipated. As a result, the vet has me on subcutaneous fluids because constipation can cause me to be dehydrated. Also, the fluids may help restore the electrolyte and fluid balance in my colon. My mama and papa give me my fluids twice a week. I received my subcutaneous fluids last night. It creates a temporary bump or goiter around my neck area. As you can see from the picture, my neck has a big bump on the right side.
