Guest Lala Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 (edited) After 3 weeks of being limp and seemingly pain-free, Lilah began limping again today. A few times she was knuckling over. Does the pain really come on so fast? This evil, evil cancer. I'm very worried about her. Will call the vet first thing in the morning, but am so sad and worried for her now. I've given her 3 50 mg tramadol thoughout the day and her usual dose of deramaxx 75 mg in am. I think I will give her another 50 mg of tramadol and maybe 25 mg more of deramaxx before bed. I don't want to overdo it on pain meds without talking to her vet, but I don't want her to be in pain all night.

Guest MorganKonaAlex Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 It moved very fast for my Alex. For his osteo, we were told we could give him 100mg. of Tramadol 4 x day. That was in addition to his Rimadyl and Neurotin. Alex weighted 74 lbs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zimsmom Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 Lexi weight about 65#. It think the extra Tramadol is OK but the extra Dermax might upset her stomach. I'm sorry your going through this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Houndtime Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 Now that I am reading the additional posts; after John E had his eye surgery, the doctor said he could have extra tramadol, but only one deramax. I don't remember what is the reason, but someone on here should be able to give you the answer. Again, I am so sorry for you and your beautiful girl.

iluvgreys Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 I'm so sorry to hear that your girlie is in pain again. OS is such a nasty cancer. Houndtime is right. You can give more tramadol, but Deramaxx is one of those once-a-day meds, to be given in the a.m. with food. Sending lots of prayers and light...

Guest Lala Posted May 14, 2007 Share Posted May 14, 2007 Lilah does not seem any better today. The vet says I can give her 100 mg of tramadol, but other than that was not very helpful. I've stayed home from work to be with her. I have not even been able to get her to go out to pee. Please say a prayer for my beautiful baby girl.
