Hey Everyone....sorry I've been a bit preoccupied all week...I was gonna have my mom/secretary post more about Naworlins & my neato package I received from
NEKO for the Int'l Goodie Exchange...but that will have to wait till this weekend....cuz I have some other news to tell...I went to the vet cuz my left back leggy was a bit sore & I was walking funny...Look at the pic above...a doggie thermometer...I had that damn thing poked up my bum on Wednesday...
The vet techs are masters of trickery...they tell you to look a the pretty pics on the wall to get your mind off of it...
oh look...doggies sitting on deck chairs on the beach...how nice...makes me want to be at the beach myself...DUH...OUCH! That was the moment the poker was poking me where the sun don't shine...
& then the took all my furs off & xrated me...& this what they found... Spondylosis - which is a condition in which bridges are formed along the ventral (bottom) parts of the vertebrae ...they aren't supposed to be fused together on the bottom like that...you can see one on the bottom in the middle of the pic & then the last three on the right side of the pic......a fancy smancy name for arthritis & I have multiple regions of it... “Spondylitis” pretty much means “an inflammation of the spine...
You really can't see the fused vertebre here...but I thought you'd all like to see a fantastic xray of my hippies...the vet said they look pawsome! No signs of hip dysplasia or anything like that...
Here I am just waking up from the sedative they gave me...my eyes are all red & droopy...
Sleeping the drugs off at home...zzzzzzzzzzzz...
Waking up to a freaking flash in my cute face...My eyes are still red & droopy...
I look kinda freaky here...drugs & me don't mix well...I prefer the highs I get from pizzle sticks or chasing kitties...but now I'm on Rimadyl for a trial period to see if it makes me feel better & gets my youthful kick back...I guess I'll never be able to fulfill my dream of trying out for the Rockettes...& becoming a prima ballerina like
Sophie is out...oh well...
Love & Licks,
Randi
ps...my mom/secretary/nurse would like any advice anyone would like to share about arthritis/spondylsis/rimydyl... & I would like any advice anyone has about keeping 2 human hands on my belly to be rubbed 24/7 at all times...
