Disc problem Thank you all for getting back to me on this issue.. I failed to mention her name in my first post. Nellie
Let me say that there were no xrays done. The vet came up wih this because he pushed on her back and sheimmediately went to her stomach.
As the days move on, I think we have 2 problems going on. Because of the elevated kidney levels the Vet had me try the K/D food. Now she can't stop itching. Nelliedeveloped a hot spot under her jaw. her skin is really red. She is always gnawing on her back leg and scrathing at her jaw. Now I don't no if its because of pain or allergies?
Could it be possible that she doesn't have a disc problem and she has really bad allergies. which is causing her behind to curl up when she walks. When I let her outside she runs around to do her business with no problems but once she is done she curls up again and darts for the door to come in.
I think because this is the first time I've seen Nellie in this condition. My wife and I might be little freaked out. I guess we need to let the meds kick in for a week and see if there is noticable changes for good or bad.
Thanks again for responding |
