Good evening,
Late post today but it's been busy over here.
On Sunday night Peanut started straining and peeing blood again. I was able to call the vet (the clinic I brought Peanut to when it first started) and the vet on duty prescribed another round of antibiotic for him. He's been doing pretty good ever since. No more blood. Active, playful, eating, doesn't appear to be in pain. I'm hoping this second round of antibiotic clears this up completely.
As for Nestle, I've decided to go ahead with his dental on Thursday. As much as I hate Dr. Ted I figured if I was to cancel and go somewhere else I'd be paying almost twice as much. As a single income family every penny counts. Plus we've been postponing this for months now and I really just wanna have it done so it doesn't weigh on me anymore.
I was told by the vet office that Dr. Ted only has one other operation scheduled for that morning so Nestle's operation should start around 8:00-8:30 which makes me feel a little bit more on ease.
I do have a question in regards to his insulin though. Assuming that he goes in at 8 and the dentall ends at 9:00-9:30, and he usually gets his insulin at 10:30AM, would it be wise and ok to let the office give him his insulin at that time, given that he's awake? Or should I just bite the bullet and skip?
And also, if he gets any teeth pulled out, what is the best pain medication I should ask for? Or what pain med should I avoid/be wary of?
Once again any advice is much appreciated
