[FONT="Comic Sans MS"Hi...I am in a panic.....my 3 year old male Berner, River, was just treated for Bloat ...it has been 3 days since his episode and he started with very mild symptoms again this evening. I followed the vets advice, did not eat for 24 hours, very limited water and stay on wet food only (lowcarbs) and he STILL is showing problems. Our breeder is helping us and giving us advice too, can anyone add to recs for diet? What to give him during episodes..Maalox? Gasx,etc?

I think you should stick to the diet given by your vet. Any diet that is not recommended might worsen the condition.
