Hey all,

Does anyone know an orthopedic vet in the NYC/westchester area?

On thursday night I had to rush Lila to the vet because her legs were hurting her. When I got home Thurs night, as usual she jumped up to greet me. She ony jumped up once and fell screaming! She started to shake badly out of fear. She then followed me to my room, and again jumped up to me and fell screaming. This time, she peed on herself. I ran to the vet and they did x-rays, lyme titers, cbc, bmp which were all normal. They gave her rimadyl which is helping. She is walking alittle bit now, but I can tell it still hurts because there are times she wont move and her entire body is shaking/shivering. Her hips are hunched over when she does walk. My vet wants me to wait, but I want to take her to an orthopedic vet asap. Please help!
