After all day at the vet, Blinky was found to have a dislocated hip on her second set of x-rays (why they didn't do hip x-rays first in the first series, I have no clue). She was hypovolemic and still is, but they want us to take her home. They say there is going to be swelling and I may have to express her bladder. They are saying there is no surgery to right this, so we have to have her in a carrier for weeks on end for it to have a chance at healing. I am grateful to every person who emailed me about wheelchairs - I need to see how much this bill is going to be, and then I can go about a chair. I'll ask the vet if a chair that keeps her immobile in the back is too much movement - it probably is, but just in case this doesn't get better we still want to get a chair. Unfortunately we didn't get the doctor we usually have - so I am afraid it's going to be a giant amount compared to the low prices we get in general from the main vet, who knows we spend $$$$ a year in vet bills anyway. Anyway - we have to go pick her up since they have no one there at night. I was wondering if anyone on list has dealt with this type of thing before. I didn't catch if they were both dislocated, or just one - I think just one. I know I saw her tail twitching shortly after she fell, then nothing afterward, but they say she can feel the pain. Something else may be wrong with her as well - her temp dropped drastically, to around 90F, it's up to 98F now. It took since 10:30 to now to go up 8 degrees. They said they have no clue what is causing that. Thank you all again, L [Posted in FML 6899]
