And be very careful handling her because you can also get Beaver Fever. Because
I live in the woods the vet gives me Flagel to keep on hand. I treat without
testing. It seems that by the time the find Giardia the dog is very sick. Make
sure you wash your hands after handling the dog. EVERY TIME

Yes, chronic Giardiasis can kill. So can chronic Coccidiosis.
My boy has been treated several times for Giardia and Coccidia with
no improvement. I wish it had been one of these parasitic diseases
as they are usually easier to treat than SIBO.
Janet, I hope Candi will get recover soon now that you have a
diagnosis. Please keep us posted.

Paulette,
I may have been the one inquiring about SIBO. My girl, Candi, was
thought to have SIBO or cancer. As it turns out, after a VERY
expensive stool sample (diarrhea panel for $155.00!!!) they found
good old Giardia. To correctly diagnosis her problem we had to do a
biopsy (she couldn't have surgery as her protein level was too low)
or get a stool sample to the vet within 2 hours. We finally were
able to get the sample to the vets. So now she is being treated for
Giardia. The symptoms of Giardia are similar to several problems,
such as Mal Absorption syndrome, etc. It is hard to detect Giardia
and we were lucky (I guess) to find it. So we are still battling it
and hope that the damage done will not shorten her life. I have
talked to several breeders (both Shepherds and Danes) that have lost
dogs to Giardia. I was shocked as I didn't realize that it could
kill. So we are taking this one day at a time and seeing what
happens with her.
