Re: Emergency Vet
I took Bonnie back to the vet this evening. The swelling is still there and about the size of my palm, but it does seem to have gone down a bit, unless it is wishful thinking on my part. The Vet prescribed some more pain killer/anti-inflamatory and will aspirate and get it analysed on Wednesday if it hasn't gone. So still no answer as to what it is yet, but at least she is a lot brighter than last night.Re: Emergency Vet
Re: Emergency Vet
She seems a bit better in herself today, thank you, Marian, but still quieter than she 'ought to be. She's been out down the fields and spent the morning in the garden with us, but she seems tired. I suppose I am looking for symptoms now and maybe imagining too much.Re: Emergency Vet
I took Bonnie back to the vet on Wednesday and thankfully the swelling is about a quarter of the size it was, so the antibiotic is working. The vet is now more confident that it is some sort of infection which caused the lump and says to continue with the antibiotic and anti-inflamatory for another 7 days and then, hopefully she will be OK. I am so relieved - I wish the vet hadn't talked about lymphoma in the first place.
