Kind of frustrated

[Megansmom]

, the Orthopedic Vet called back this afternoon stating after 3+ days of himself analyzing, other surgical specialist, radiological specialist analyzing Megan's ex-rays, they could see nothing .

She is still limping off and on and at this point he wants me to bring her in Monday morning examine her and discuss possible game plans.

Conclusive so far:
No arthritis
no Lyme
No injury

Penny for your thoughts

Oh, there is an injury, just not one you can see on radiographs or she wouldn't be limping. Have you had her checked out by a chiropractor?

It could be a muscle tear or stain. Something slightly out of aligement. They won't show up on radiographs and unless you can feel the swelling or they react darn hard to find. So could be mild inflammation in a joint. lots of thing that might not show up on tests

I know how frustrating it is. Justice went thought this limp, no limp thing for 6 months after his flexor tendon injury. He rehab for 4 month prior looked good for 3 months and than started on/off limping. No one could find out what the issue was. What finally did the trick was a trip to the chiroprator and 8 injections of adequan plus rest.

Honestly I have been thinking the same thing. I agree 110% and will look into a chiropractor. One thing that was going for you with Justice is he did have an obvious injury so at least you had some something to work with. We can't seem to figure anything out.

However at this point we'll try anything

Thanks for your opinion
