this morning out she runs and the behavior is again clearly indicating
a UTI. I'll do a catch later today when I take her to the vet.

Our next step according to our very new young vet (first year out but
with a very old established practice) is to sedate her, scope her, do
a clean catch and figure out what's going on....

also, she's gaining weight even though we've increased her exercise
and decreased her food....
because she seems to be drinking more I'm having her tested for
Diabetes as well. after all she's now middle aged (or better at 7)

I'd wait until the urine test comes back. She's been cultured as well?
I'd also wait for the diabetes results to come back (and I assume you
know that fasting blood and first-thing urine are really important if
you want accurate numbers). The scope procedure would be only after I
exhausted all of the less invasive things, but that's just me.
