Second LP surgery It's been quite a while since I've posted. Life has been busy. :) Lulu had LP surgery on her right hind leg 2 years ago at the age of about 7 months. We knew she had LP grade 3 in both legs, however, she did not show any clinical symptoms with her left leg so the surgeon and I agreed it would be better to wait on that one. Well, I am afraid the day has come...over the weekend Lulu began limping on her left leg. It's actually to the point where she has her left leg pulled up 90% of the time when she's walking. :( So we are going to the vet this afternoon to see about it & discuss making an appointment with the surgeon. My heart is aching for her. I hate to see her in pain! I dread going through another surgery & recovery, but if it's as successful as the first one was it will be more than worth the time, effort & money. |
I hope that all goes well for Ms. Lulu... it is really difficult seeing our babies in any type of discomfort. I'll be sending positive thoughts your way. |
Good luck |
Surgery has been scheduled for Dec 27th. It's kind of funny but since returning home after the vet visit, Lulu hasn't limped! :D The vet did say her kneecap is out pretty much all the time. So surgery is necessary. She's on an anti-inflammatory for now. |
My little one is going to have done in both knees also. When they did xrays they said her bones weren't ready yet. I hope all goes well for your LuLu. Will be watching for post so I might know what to expect. |

The surgery is so expensive I purchased true companion insurance in case of any emergencys they pay 90% with 100 deductible but not for pre existing problems but I figured with tiny dogs anything can happen. Hope your baby heals fast and without any problems. |
I am sorry Lulu has the go through the a surgery again. I hope her surgery and recovery goes well. Good thoughts and blessings are sent to you and Lulu during this time. |
