He was fitted with a cervical collar and this morning when he woke up no strange behavior, no pacing, crying nothing a little pain wimper so we gave him some pain meds and he is resting. The vet is thinking these morning episodes are being brought on by pain due to laying still in the same position all night..so the collar will help stabilize until we can get him in to have MRI done. On the other side he tested very likely with his Protein C levels to have Microvascular Dysplasia we are also having a biopsy done on Tuesday. Your continued thoughts and prayers are appreciated. Alot of tears have been shed this week for our little man and all of your positive energy will help us all get through this. |
What a good Momma you are. Just a reminder to really really make sure that the vet KNows about the neck issue. Even without a ddx, you make sure they know about the neck pain, and the abnormality as yet un diagnosed on the Xray.
They made need to adjust their protocol for sedation....
