Cosmo fell, hit his head or back :(

[BLEU BOY BARBER]

Cosmo~ Well wishes for you sweetheart! You have flat been through it...

Mommy ~

Please get him seen as soon as you can.. I dont wanna scare you but Bleu boy had AAS and you can read on it on my threads I have posted and to be honest I kept him on pain meds and it just masked the pain....

I just want you to know even though he looks cute and acts fine from one minute to the next all this is NORMAL BLEU did the same exact thing. I also had a time bomb on my hands as well...

Please get him to a neurosurgeon right away...

I will tell you what you said that concerns me ...
You said 2 things that got my RED FLAGS STRIGHT UP FLYING HIGH

1. HE STUMBLES~ your baby had a hard fall his bone "COULD BE" and sounds like to me pressing on the spinal column which in turn causes NEUROLOGICAL DEFECTS such as STUMBLING!!!! The signs will start getting worse if indeed this is what he has.. I pray he doesn't
Signs such as stubbling, walking sideways, backwards, loss of hearing , seizures, ect the list goes on and on and you have been dealing with this a few days and by the sounds of things you are in no rush to get him seen immediately... Please adhere to what I am saying .. I say it gently I promise only out of concern for you and trying to save you heartache total heartache down the line....

2. The second thing you said OH my baby looks so cute he was stretched out watching TV.... This "EXACT" EXACT" EXACT" position is the only position Bleu boy could be in that did not cause him any pain... Yes Bleu walked and acted normal and looked cute so on and so forth but he had a underlying problem that could have cost his life...

I beg you to get help asap.. Dont wait.......

WORRIED for you and for your baby
Vicki

I just reread the whole entire thread here and another thing that has me concerned is the tilted head....

MAJIC50 her baby was diagnosed AAS same as Bleu and they did EMERGENCY surgery today...FEB 27th, 2008

The head is tilted because of the pressure on the spinal column.. I am not gonna rest till your baby gets to a neurosurgeon. Bleu did the same thing and there are 2 other surviving AAS yorkie dogs with tilted heads for the rest of their life that did have surgery .....

I dont wanna frighten you and scare you and I have been in your shoes behind a computer thinking who is this woman and what does she know... We do not get paid none of us YTERS do and the least of my concern is to upset you or scare or bring you anymore than you are already dealing with.... please know the post are gentle and from the heart of a veryyyyyyyyy concerned AAS parent

Love Vicki

Heres the story now that i've calmed down As you all know, the neurologist was going to visit him 2 days ago..but it was canceled. That night cosmo was doing wonderfully and had regained the feeling in his legs. So the next day I spoke with someone(thankyou!) and decided it was unnecessary to do all these tests..so I called to cancel and they said..you can't cancel you have to pay either way..I said WHAT? he didn't even look at the dog why do I have to pay?? and after reading all these terrible reviews..it just came to me that they were in it for the money..and not for my dog. So I went in the back to see cosmo..he looked HORRIBLE its like he was on sleeping pills and he was SOO skinny. I said has he been eating? they said no we have to force feed him, and were not allowed to push him, so thats why he is on the IV. Now, i'm no doctor or anything..but I KNOW you can't live on an IV forever. After a long argument I took him home. Can you believe he actually said to me..TAKE YOUR DOG I HAD ENOUGH JUST TAKE HIM. Then I told him about how rude his desk staff was..the first day I got there I said can I see my dog, and this lady asks the nurse can you see if cosmo is still alive? meanwhile i'm standing 2 feet away..anyway I could go on and on about our day yesterday.. hes here next to me resting..he just ate an entire bowl of food and took his medicine without fighting. He is just so much happier and hes doing great, hes getting the medicine orally that he would have been getting through the IV, so theres no reason for him to sit at the vet in a cage all alone. Oh and the visiting hours for your pet...9PM-9:05PM and don't you DARE call and ask about him twice in one day.

How horrible!! Some people try to spread their misery and unfortunately it sounds as though the staff at your vet's office should get a new job if htey can't be sensitive to their patients owners!! I think you did the right thing by bring Cosmo home. It's so scary to think you can't even trust you vet not to milk your wallet dry! Well wished for Cosmo.

I guess it might have been common for that vet to act that way only because he may very well know he has something serious on his hands and could not do anything about it and it was going to take out of his pocket so that was the purpose of keeping him on Ivs and keeping him overnight and the bill just kept going up and up and up I commend you 100% for getting your baby out of there..He sounds like a greedy selfish IDIOT!

2 VETS MISSED BLEUS DIAGNOSIS VAL and other YTES DIAGNSOED MY BLEU and they are not even scholared vets HELLO!

I tried to reply to your sincere pm but it will not let me so here is my pm back



Go and read my first thread I ever started and the date is Jan 10th the day YTers diagnosed Bleu it was Val her screen name is MY BABE4ME her dogs name is baby bear... If you look at Majic50 her dog just was diganosed yetserday and Val and I both helped her diagnose her dog.... her dogs name is Lucy... Do you live close to a university? I would only take my dog to a University I would eliminate all vets your baby needs a neurosurgeon... I think I know exactly what is wrong with your baby just by seeing your posts only because I have reserached and researched ..

I tried to pm you my phone # clear out your pms maybe or send me your # I will call you !

Hugs
Vicki
