The vet called about an hour ago and said the ortho consult didn't see anything on the xray. Which is good but doesn't explain the limping. She's a tough girl so if she's limping somethings definately going on. Her vet feels that it's her arthritis and that she may have aggravated her shoulder running around. When she was young she was diagnosed with an abnormally small liver (found on ultrasound when she ate a bunch of paper towels at my mom's....she was 1 1/2 yrs then) but she has never had any abnormal bloodwork results. So we r gonna decide on a good treatment for her for arthritis. She has been on pain meds so we r gonna go next week for her yearly senior bloodwork and then go from there. She's limping significantly less but she's still favoring it a bit....thank you for all your thoughts and prayers! They seem to be helping! I was rather worried it was gonna be something bad! |
