My good friends, on Monday I had a very nasty health scare and got rushed to the vets. My legs went all wobbly and I kept falling over, I was very scared as the room was spinning and I couldn't get up, I tried to nip mummy when she picked me up **hangs head in shame** as I was so confused.
The Vet lady poked and prodded me so I swore at her too, she kept trying to see if I could use my feet, when I just wanted to be left alone. She looked in my ears and listened to my heart too. The Vet said
to mummy that I may have had a mini stroke or a fit of some kind. I do feel a bit better now and I'm at home again being spoilt rotten, I have a nice new hot water bottle in my bed to keep me warm.

The annoying thing is, I has to take things easy for a while, no galloping about like a pup and no rough games with daddy. I have to take things steady until I'm back to my normal self :o(
This morning I had an allergic reaction to my pills, they made my face swell up and I looked like a Shar-Pei. Not that there is anything wrong with that if you're a Shar-Pei, but not a good look on a Cocker Spaniel!
I had to have a steroid injection and she stole some more of my blood for tests, the only good thing was I didn't have to have that cold thing shoved up my bottom, that vets always like to do **breathes a sigh of relief**
I has to have an MRI done to find out what is the matter with me, so hoomum decides to crack a silly joke about not being able to find my brain **resigned sigh** she is soooo embarrassing sometimes!
Thank you for all my get well wishes from my twitter and facebook friends. I will keep you all updated as I hear things.
You poor pup. You've had a rough few days. Bless. You take it easy on your mom too, I know what kind of scares you guys can give us. Love you both bunches

You sure is right there Aimee, I'm feeling proper perky today, mummy thinks the steroid injection has helped a lot.
DeleteMy cute little face is still a bit puffy but I'm starting to look like me again this morning.

Keep us posted BB, have a good night x.
ReplyDeleteFeeling very well today Lesley, mummy had a phone call late last night I'm off for my MRI at lunchtime, no breakfast for me today, how unfair is that?

This is embarrassing **coughs** turns out I has a middle ear infection affecting my balance and making me carry my head funny.
ReplyDeleteDr Tim was very nice. He also found that I have a neck problem caused by my advanced years. Other than that I'm as fit as a fiddle, what a relief.
Although mummy is still in a state of shock as she was getting very stressed out by the original diagnosis. Thankfully the bill was a lot cheaper than the original she was quoted as I didn't need to have an MRI ...
and i bet mummy was happy she didnt have to sell your bones to pay for an MRI. Hope you are back to your cocky self very soon. Hugs x
ReplyDeleteI'm starting to feel so much better now Mr Fred, a walk along the beach yesterday although no swimming has really perked me up.
DeleteI'm glad she didn't have to sell my bones too, my legs wouldn't work BOL x
I hope you get better soon. I really hope they find what is wrong and also find that it is something easy to fix. It's really scary when you don't know what's wrong.
ReplyDeleteThank you Miss Dawn I'm starting to fell a lot better now antibiotics have kicked in x
