TheFullHouse Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 (edited) I don't usually post in H&M for the small stuff but since Emmy and Andy, I'm a little paranoid. Since Andy Arrow came up with a lump on his side (which turned out to be a fatty tumor, nothing big) but last night Valentino started limping. Today his wrist is swollen, quite a bit too, and I'm worried. I will be making an appointment to get him in to the vet today, but could use some prayers that this is nothing big. Our poor doesn't feel well at all. It looks like he has been bitten by a spider of some kind. He is running a fever of 105 and as of late this afternoon there is an obvious spot where he was bitten. To be on the safe side he has had blood work done which came back perfect and two sets of x-rays that show nothing but 1 small bone spur that up until now has caused no problems, so he came home with some antibiotics which he has received the first dose and a hefty dose of Benadryl and will be on Metacam for the pain. I was worried because he hadn't had any water today but he came home and drank a bunch so he's fine in that department. Our boys leg The spot where I suspect he was bitten Our sweet sad boy, you can see how much bigger the one ankle is than the other We will be watching him carefully and he has to go back to the vet if he doesn't start feeling better within the next few days. Thank you for all the prayers! My worst fear was that it was osteo so I feel much better about that.
