Hi all,

thanks for all your well wishes for our eldest fur baby  :luv:

She was not good this morning so we got an appointment to see our vet again with a view to having X-rays today.

The X-rays have showed a calcified disc in the middle to lower region of her spine, as well as spurs and growths on several other vertebrae.  We knew she had some calcification from a previous X-ray she had done about 5 years ago, and it seems to have gotten worse.

At the vets Millie seemed totally fine (!) although still with a hunched back. By the time we got her home the adrenaline and sedatives had worn off and she was back to shaking & occasionally crying out when she moves.

The suggested course of action is to continue with the pain relief (yeh .. ) and anti inflammatories, and to make an appointment with the specialist who did Jennie's surgery with a view to doing an MRI to find out exactly what is going on with the discs and growths, and make a decision from there.
She is not as bad as Jennie was at all, but she is obviously in discomfort and sore.  She hasn't been for a poop for over 24 hours  :'(

thanks again

Thank you all.
I shall be calling the specialist in the morning to get an appointment; my vet did some blood work as well so I want to make sure I have those and my x rays ready to take.  I've no doubt I'll be able to get an appointment Thursday, they are usually very good and fast - such a shame I know this!!  :lol:

I do wonder though - what on earth have I been doing to my spaniels if this is now 2 slipped discs?? Anyone would think I've been chucking them out of windows or something - which I haven't BTW  :lol:
I must be a bad mummy, letting them do stuff that injures them  :-\
