Thank heavens she is fine. Our little girl had the same surgery a month ago. Just make sure you have enough pain meds for every 4-6 hours over the weekend just in case, especially since it's Friday and the vet may be gone over the weekend. Our little girl had quite a bit of pain. She shivered whenever the pain meds wore off and the vet said that was a sign she was in pain. She was on them for about four days. At first we could tell they were wearing off every four hours and we had to wait to give her another dose. It was very hard to see her suffer. The vet had given us enough for about 2 days, but she went through those and we called and explained her symptoms and the vet gave us about 10 more. By day 4 the pain meds weren't wearing off so soon and we could gradually cut back on them without her looking miserable. Good luck on her recovery! Good thoughts coming your way. |
