YAY! for good days! :):cool::)
Hey, keep it down in the front pew (Trish) :)
3 weeks off Vetoryl, almost 2 weeks since last dose of prednisone. Continue to cut back Tramadol to small ¼ tablet every other morning, larger ¼ tablet each night. No reply from IMS- I wont even start that rant.
The last three days Zoe has perked up and is not sleeping all the time. She was having trouble standing for all her drops after eating, she gets five drops after breakfast, minimum five minutes between eye drops so we were only doing maybe 2 drops this week and then I would put her in the bedroom to lay down and rest her legs before doing the rest of the drops. She still gets five eye drops 3-4 times a day This morning she stood for 3 drops and that back leg did not give out. This week she tottered twice to the bathroom to ask for her potato treats and drops.
This morning I put her on her blanket so I could leave for work and four times she got up and walked to the kitchen door. Finally, on the fifth try, she went and laid down on her blanket.
Her cortisol must be going higher resulting in the increased energy and maybe she is hungrier too, food is a pretty good motivator for Zoe and she is not looking around the kitchen dropping food all over when she eats, in true Cush pup style her mouth is buried in her bowl snorting away and eating though Koko still finishes first now.
Maybe the front leg does not hurt so bad so she is not throwing as much weight back onto her back legs and maybe that is why that right back leg is better.
Monday I will schedule an appointment to have her cortisol checked. I guess we will let things ride for now as I don’t want to introduce anything new with this change in her. It will muddy the waters.
GO ZOE, GO ZOE:D:D:D
WOOHOO!!! Way to go, Zoe!!! :cool::cool::cool: Oh, this makes my heart sing so I can only imagine what it does for yours! :):):)
A thought, rare these days, crossed my mind - white potatoes are part of the Nightshade family of plants and this family contains solanine, which can greatly aggravate arthritis and other inflammatory processes by interfering with enzymes in the muscles. I have learned, that for me, eating much at all of this family causes me more inflammation and therefore more pain. If Zoe likes sweet potatoes, you might try those as a treat instead as they work against inflammation.
So glad to read that Zoe is feeling better...Go Zoe!!!
God has other plans for my beloved.
Hubby came home 2 hours after I posted and found her splayed out on her blanket blood from her mouth. I drove 60 miles an hour home from work, she did not look good.
She was admitted to ER late this morning - they say she is critical.
Oh, Addy! :(:(:(:( We are surrounding you all with our love, prayers and hope.
Addy,
I am so sorry, hoping that Zoe will recover from this.
