Yes, she had bi-lateral LP surgery. Then a re-surgery to fix her right leg. 6 months later she was suppose to have re-surgery to fix her left leg, but she had a staph that wouldn't go away, and then we found out she most likely has MVD, so we put it off. She had really had no issues, until now.

The limping is throwing me, but it sounds intestinal to me. It sounds like she is filing with gas and then feels better after gas relief is given. The question is why? I think if it continues, you may need to see a specialist who can figure it out b/c being gassy and bloated is not at all healthy and I would just hope it doesn't turn into something more serious.

Has she been diagnosed with IBD? No, right?
Really, I am going to go and read about that...ok...so I will not do Metcamp, I had no idea they said that.

The limping is throwing me off too, and I can't tell which leg, she is just walking odd right now. Better though, as before she was stiff and arched and you knew 100% something was wrong.

No IBD dx. I never really had an issue with her. If its gas, I will need to find out why and from what that's for sure...
