Birthday Blues
Our birthday celebration didn't go as planned. We were so looking forward to cake and pictures and laughs but we have spent the week in and out of the vets office. CeCe turned one year old on the 13th(yesterday) and I turned, well I had another birthday! Yes my baby was born on my birthday. On Sunday we noticed that she wasn't her usual wild self and by night she wouldn't move except to eat, drink, or potty so we called the vet and took her in about 10 pm. He thinks that she somehow pulled a muscle in her neck and put her on tramadol for pain and a muscle relaxer, metacam. By Tuesday afternoon she was no better so I took her back in and the vet took neck films which were clear and took her off the metacam and onto a steroid. She has bursts of semi energetic activity but still doesn't move much and spends most of her time slleeping and despondent. It has been almost a week now and I am so worried and don't know what to do now. Has anyone had a similar experience? Could the drugs be keeping her down? Thanks, for listening and for any information.
