Hi all, Thought Id update you on what poor Ozzy has been up to ovet the last few days :( on wednesday under a GA he had a liver shunt and an endoscopy. The shunt didnt show anything wrong with his liver :thumbsup: but the vet says that he had some brown spots in his tummy that looked like he may of had a bleed but there was no evidence of ulcers - vet did a biopsy and has sent this off. He then managed to get an emergency MRI booked for Oz in Cheshire so off we went yesterday taking his notes xrays etc from my vet. I had also taken my camera as I had video of Ozzy when he was well and also what he was like since he fell. To cut a long story short - after a 7 1/2 hour wait poor Ozzy staggered out after yet another GA with his little head shaved, leg and tummy shaved from previous bloods and scans but the vet said the good news was that although Ozzy had a bleed in his brain, the swelling had gone down and it had healed (w00t) , (no sign of it on the scan) the bad news was that the damage had affected his balance and coordination hence the twitching and shaking :( . So he still has a long way to go and we still have to wait for other blood and spinal tap results. Thanks for your words of encouragement, its really helped me cope. Keep the good vibes coming :huggles:

Tina :thumbsup:

Just looked at the letter they gave me and I thought the bill for yesterday was £1.700.00 but when I got my head together (and put my glasses :- " on) I saw the bill including bloods and medication for yesterday came to.............................

£2.140 :eek: :eek: :eek:
 
We are thinking of you, the family & of course poor wee Ozzy at this stressful time Tina :thumbsup: and send all of you our love & lots of positive vibes :luck: :luck:

Ozzy really couldn't have asked for a better 'Mummy' through all of this :wub: Make sure you take care of yourself too :thumbsup:

Give the wee man lots of hugs :huggles: from us and all his Rushden relatives, our thoughts are with you all :wub:

Poor Ozzy :( - he has had such a rough time hasn't he? I do hope that time will heal his brain injury - he certainly is getting loads of TLC from you so that's good. :huggles:

Best of luck and I really hope he starts to improve very soon :luck: :huggles:

Dear little chap :( :wub: :wub:

Sending more :huggles: :huggles: and :luck: :luck: for Ozzy's full recovery.

(What a relief that you have insurance - his accident just goes to prove that things can happen so quickly and unexpectedly)

Thank you for keeping us updated - I think we all worry for each other when our whippies are poorly :huggles:
 
I have been thinking of you all day at work, thank goodness you now know what has happend.

I hope your litte man makes a full recovery :)

Lots of liks and kisses.

Andrea :thumbsup:

Im so sorry to read the news about Ozzy.. :( I do hope he makes a full recovery...poor mite has been through such a lot...

I think I need to sit down myself after reading your Vet Bill... (w00t) my god ...are you insured?? hope so after that shock..

Anyway Im sending you those good vibes...and luck and hugs for you both.. :huggles: :luck: :huggles: :luck:
 
Poor Ozzy & poor you. It's very distressing having a sick dog and not knowing what's really wrong. I'm so sorry you have to be going through all this, especially with Ozzy being such a young whipper snapper. I hope things start to improve :luck: :luck: Do keep updating us because I now know how much it helps to be able to write it all down (type it all out really) and tell folk about it . :huggles:
 
I think I need to sit down myself after reading your Vet Bill... (w00t) my god ...are you insured?? hope so after that shock..

:sweating: I am insured or else I wouldnt have been able to have all this specialist stuff done, the bill at my own vet is already over £1,000 :b I would have had to send my OH out to sell his body (w00t) :x :x :lol:
 
golly that is an expensive vets bill! (w00t) good job you are insured.hope Ozzy makes a full recovery :luck: :luck: :luck: :)
 
:( Quick update on Ozzy today. Still no change with his mobility but the good news is he has actually eaten a meal (w00t) Since last week he has eaten and drunk very little so im taking it as a good sign that he is eating better :thumbsup: Got to ring the vet in Cheshire up on Tuesday for the results of his spinal tap and bloods so please keep your fingers crossed for him :( Sometimes I think yes we can get him through this and other times I look at his little face and he looks so sad.... :unsure:

Tina
 
Hang in there Tina. You are doing the best for him. :thumbsup:

 

Lots :luck: :luck: :luck: for Ozzy
