Carrot's hydro didn't go so well today. Poor lamb's all stiffened up and seems to have strained some of the muscles in his groin (similar to humans who have bad hips getting pain in the groin area) his gait is very uneven, almost double the stride length on his left side compared to his right. Usually after a few minutes on the treadmill he finds his rhythm and settles into it. This time we had to stop after 7 minutes.
I knew he wasn;t right. The last week and a half he's been intermittently exhibiting pain based behaviours (nipping and getting hyper) but difficult to isolate where it was coming from (back muscles? hipjoints?). So we've to go his regular vets and discuss a possible short course of anti-inflammatories. The idea of which gives me a sinking feeling...seriously, already? He's only just turned one year old. Don't much like the idea of him being in pain though either, so hey ho. Needs must and all that. |

Feel better. Do fake tears help, or something that shrinks the vessels? |

that is sweet to post on the right. sadly it doesn't quite work like that -I don't see the left of whatever I'm looking at. Unless I know to look for it. Unless you actually wrote

I've ended a friendship today. That's upsetting to me because I never thought this friend would be such a fucking bitch to me.
Anyway, life goes on. Out with the dead weight. I guess now I have room for something or someone better. |
oh that really sucks, sorry ali
|
Yeah a bit monster. Not nearly as much as your trials at the moment though. My issue seems very small in comparison.
|
Losing a friend isn't small. Sucks.

The scale of the man's offending is truly shocking.
Update on Carrotchops: spoke to his regular vet today. She's only down at the local surgery on Thursdays, so was gearing up to maybe have to take him to the other branch (an hour's drive) but as it happens, she's booked solid til next Friday at either branch and is then off to stateside for a conference. So, we're starting his acupuncture when she returns atthe end of the month. In the meantime she's suggested he does go for a short course of anti-inflammatory painkillers and I've booked him in with one of the other vets tomorrow morning. He's been really out of sorts today, poor little sod. Like a kid when they're sick, all restless with no attention span. |
Poor pup! Hope he feels better soon.
I feel like everyone's getting hit hard this January. Sending wishes for peace and healing out to all those who need them. |
Poor Carrot! I hope the anti-inflammatories help. Sorry this is happening.
