OK... here is Tubbit's mix:
Enalapril 20mg
7cc Oraplus
1cc Orasweet
This mixture equals 2.5 mg/ml
I give her 0.1cc by mouth one to two times a day.
Tub had it two times a day for quite a while. she is now on once a day in the evening. The compound ONLY LASTS 30 days. NO LONGER. I have seen her start to decline if I push a bottle too long.

Thank you so much. I will relay that information to my vet. The appointment is Monday, if he makes it that far.
Pigglies says his heart rate is fast and his lungs sound clear. He is sitting kind of hunched up, which you can only tell by feeling him because he has so much hair.
Wish I knew what to do for him.

Enacard is 1/8-1/4 mg SID-EOD (every 24-48 hours). A bit of a range there
Josephine posted this as the range for Enacard when Tub first started on it.

Here is Pinta's advice on Lasix:
Lasix 2-5mg/kg every 12 hours.
We usually give our heart pigs 5mg once a day. If necessary we slowly up the dose by going twice a day. It takes about a wweek to see how the lasix dose is working. Our Lasix solution is 10mg/cc, so we give 0.5cc daily. A severely heart stressed pig gets the full dose of 5mg twice a day. If in heart failure, 10mg at once. Once stabilized we back off on the Lasix dose till we arrive at a maintenance dose.
