Please HELP! Won't move after spay - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Ellie May · 10-24-2007, 07:07 PM

I am staying up with her tonight. She is way too sensitive to meds/drugs to not be suprevised. Someone is coming over tomorrow to watch her for me so I can sleep.

I did get instructions on activity level and exercise. They said she could try food tonight if she wants. I do have an open invitation to call the vet whenever I need to. She told me to call her if there were any concerns. Because of Ellie's liver issue I don't think this pain med is quite as good as some which is sad. I don't think we have much of a choice though. If she is still in a lot of pain tomorrow I will call the vet. As far as pottying goes, she won't. She just lays in the grass or on the pee pad. I will try again in a few hours.

What pain med did they give her? I'm sorry she's not feeling well...

Ellie May · 10-25-2007, 05:33 AM

She is quite a bit better today. She peed this morning and is walking somewhat now. I don't know if this pain med is strong enough though. I don't have the spelling of the med right now but it starts with a b and ends with norprine. I think the vet consulted an internist on it. Is this the right one to give?

Not sure what you're giving, but there are other options for pain - even if there are liver issues. Maybe call the vet and ask for an alternative. Poor Ellie! I do bet you'll see an improvement today though - once all that anesthesia clears their systems, they perk up quite a bit. Keep us posted on her!

I hope she feels better soon!!!! I least she's walking. Call your vet if have questions, that way you don't worry too much.

I'm so happy she's feeling a little bit better today. Keep us posted!

I only just found your thread. Poor Baby and poor you, how worrisome.

I am so happy she is doing better today. What a great Mommy you are - your baby can't help but improve with your loving care.
Hope she has a better day today!

I ended up calling the vet because one of Ellie's staples is almost out and others look loose. She said she has to do them loose because when the skin expands, if they are too tight, they get embedded. One or two can fall out anyway without concern since she has so many. I mentioned that the pain med isn't as strong as I would like but at the same time Ellie did jump today so I don't think she's as bad off as I think she is. She is much improved and is back to her piggy self about food.

Ellie May · 10-25-2007, 02:55 PM

The pain med is Buprenorphine 3mg 2-3 times daily as needed

Yorkiekids · 10-25-2007, 03:35 PM

Maybe between the spay and the liver biopsy she's just whooped. I'd call the vet in the am and ask his advice.

Just now seeing your thread, sending prayers to you both, hopes she is up and around soon

karleigh was out of it for a few days after her spay to.
