Oh, gosh, I don't know what planet I have been on. I did not see this until now.
Patti, I am so sorry you have been through so much and little Pixie, too!
I had a pup fall off of the bed some time back. He scared me to death...crying and limping; and I went straight to the EC with him. It was late at night. They diagnosed soft tissue injury (he has LP) and gave him Metacam or Rimadyl (right now I am not sure which one) and sent him home. The next morning I was still worried and went to my vet with him. She said the same thing and said to keep him on the anti-inflammatory for 1-2 weeks. He limped for a few days and then the limping became less and less until finally around two weeks later he stopped limping! So, it is possible for them to get better. I hope that Pixie responds the same way!
Will say a prayer tonight that your vet appt goes well tomorrow! |
