    Dental/meds Issue

    in Health and Medical discussion

    Thanks for the responses everyone.

     

    Batmom: She's not usually very cooperative, so I don't think doing it while she's awake would be an option. And I'll ask the vet about a board certified anesthesiologist. There IS one in Charleston.

     

    tbhounds: The LVT I spoke with said they didn't use preops because of how sensitive greyhounds can be. I'll ask again when I talk to the vet (she was off when I called).

     

    I checked Xena's adoption book yesterday when I got home. She went in with 4 or 5 others for her dental & spay. No notes. I'm guessing it's an in & out, wham-bam-thank you ma'am, no need for notes since we'll likely never see you again kind of thing. I also sent an email to the president of our adoption group, wondering if she might know something.

    My DW took Xena in for a dental yesterday morning. She called me shortly after noon and said that Xena was not going under and that they were going to keep her until everything cleared out of her system. I called the clinic this morning to get a rundown of what was done (I wanted to get it first hand from those who were there. No pre-ane meds were given. They put in a catheter and then put propofol in through the cath. My girl is wide awake. No tube was put in, but they did put an induction mask over her nose and administered isoflurane. Still nothing.

     

    The doc said she's only seen this once before in 15 years. Has anyone else had this happen? What protocol did you use going forward?

     

    Thanks in advance.

    Interesting you say that, Ducky. I had no problem accessing Lulah62's photos, but when I try to access smurfette's, our Barracuda filter blocks whatever site she's using. And to give you an indication of how strict it's setup, I can't even access the Powerball site - says it's a gambling site & blocks it. LOL!
