No, she isn't getting sub-q's and still isn't drinking on her own. Yes, certain blood values do suggest dehydration and decreased kidney function. I don't understand and hope there was an error with the blood values but it doesn't seem very likely.

She isn't getting SubQ's yet correct? If not, I'm not sure why the lab says it is more likely due to excess fluid intake and not kidney issues. Taking elevated BUN, Creat and hematocrit into account it appears to me to be kidney insufficiency and dehydration.
