After the 10 days of the antibiotics he was a lot better but not 100% so I took him for the xrays. Chip had multiple bladder stones and had to have surgery. Just because they can't feel the stones doesn't mean they're not there.
Hmm, well this is quite worrisome. I fear I am even more ill informed than I previously thought. I am a little annoyed that my vet did not insist on an x-ray. Shall I insist on an X-Ray during my visit on the 21st? Do I need to have this done earlier or can it wait?
