I had another earlier post last week.....
My baby Ozzie has been limping around for over a week now. I took him last Tuesday to the vet. They weighed him, and he's lost 2lbs since his June annual visit. He had no fever at that time either. They did bloodwork, all of which came back perfect. He still wasn't better last week so I took him to the vet Friday. When he was there Friday, he was running a fever so was sent with antibiotics. They really didn't seem to help much, so I took him yesterday for x-rays of his pelvis and leg.
Got the xray results today, and the confirmed he hurt his knee a while ago like an ACL tear ( he was limping in June) and has some arthritis developing. What's concerning is they inadvertently captured the lower part of his lung, and there was something concerning(not sure what, if it is a mass or not). I am taking him back tomorrow for chest x-rays. I am praying it isn't something in his lungs. My bubby is a diabetic in remission and also an asthmatic which got him to the diabetes due to the steroids prescribed. I did notice him having asthma attacks over the past few months, and they were not that serious so I didn't think anything of us. Of course I am beating myself up wondering if I should have brought him in.
This is my baby... I've had him for 13 years. He's the most important thing to me.. I've been an absolute nervous wreck since all this began. Not to mention I have been battling depression the past few months. This would just kill me if I lose him. I have been trying so hard to get myself better..... It's also killing me to see him not feeling well.
Just reaching out here to ask for some prayers for my baby tomorrow that his xrays come back without anything bad.
