I can't believe that would not be included in the original charge. Did you actually get to speak to the vet or was it just the receptionish that said you would have to pay more? I can't believe they just let you leave with an open wound because of a money issue. As far as pain meds are concerned, my husband had shoulder surgery and decided to toss out the pain meds after a short while because he didn't want to become dependent of them and his doctor reprimanded him and perscribed more because he said being in pain will prevent you from sleeping well and not sleeping well will prevent healing. I would imagine that goes for dogs too. I hope you had better luck with the vet this morning.
