Quote - :( The doc wants her at the hospital for couple more days... I'm waiting to hear more... and freaking out again.
I swear, If she gets so sick that she doesn't recover, they may as well put me down along with her.
Have they checked her blood pressure? Chynna was throwing up several times per day. The vet checked her blood pressure and found out it was sky high. She's now on Norvasc (an antihypertensive medication) and I noticed an immediate improvement in her within a couple days of starting it. She's now been on it since the beginning of March, and she rarely throws up anymore. In fact the last time was probably a couple months ago.
It's worth checking out. A cat will manifest it's symptoms in all sorts of ways and they are usually good at hiding their sickness until it's really advanced.

others see us. Try as we may, we are never
able to know ourselves fully as we
are, especially the evil side of us.
This we can do only if we are not
angry with our critics but will take in good
heart whatever they might have to
say." - Ghandi
