As most of you know Abbey was diagnosed with sm about a year ago and had surgery in March so about 10 months ago to the day. We have been dealing with an ulcerated eye for about a month which she was rechecked last week and will be rechecked on monday with the opthmalogist. I see vast improvement--not hardly any red at all now which is a relief.
Now this is what I am worried about and I feel sick to my stomach like I did 10 months ago. She's air scratching more--she takes her front paw like a cramp and cried. I haven't seen the cramp deal thing since before her surgery. I'm terrified right now. What gets me is that in addition to her gabapentin, termaril, prilosec, and eye drops-gels she's getting rimadyl and tramadol for the pain of her eye. To me this should mask her symptoms if anything and now its worse??????
Terrified to death here. I've e-mailed her neurologist which she is seeing on monday also to see what he has to say and I'm preparing that he's going to say we need to mri her.
Please pray for her and me. I love this dog too much and am fighting back the tears right now.

p.s. could the cone she's wearing around her neck to keep her from scratching at her eye possibly do this? Thats what hubby is saying--he's Mr. Positive always --.
