Re: 3/18 Brownie AMPS 160 +4 198
Brownie and Simpkin are back home from their dentals - Halleluyah!!! Simpkin's teeth were totally fine, but Brownie had 1 extraction. :sad: The vet said that when they began to scrape the tartar off one of the upper back molars, it was loose and needed to come out. I hope he hasn't been in pain from it, but how could he not have been? I'm SOOOO glad that I did this for them because that kind of pain is exactly what I wanted to alleviate and/or prevent. The vet gave Brownie a dose of bupe, but didn't think he'd need any more. He's actually looking really good, not wobbly or anything. They are both alert and hungry and thirsty (although the vet gave them 200cc subq fluids on top of the 200cc fluids that I gave them last night). Simpkin spent an unusual amount of time in the box - he sure must feel better now! I'm going to get a bg on Brownie right now and then continue testing him throughout the day and night (looking for that nom-nom syndrome...). Thanks, everyone, for all the healing vines and hugs and advice - you guys are awesome and I couldn't have gotten through it without you all! :YMHUG:
