I need more help with Sorrel's abscess
It seemed to be getting more painful and has a bit more pus coming out than usual when i cleaned it so i went to the vet and got some metacam. (0.15ml daily)
she has been on metacam for a week and I STILL can't clean it because it's obviously so painful she won't have me go near it - this is a recent development as Ive been cleaning it since october with no struggling on her part at all.
I dont understand why its suddenly got worse when previously the vet said it was doing really well, and what the best course of action would be.
she doesnt seem ill at all and is her usual lively self but ive booked her an appointment at the vet on monday morning. they seem intent on putting her under GA and cleaning it out. :? im not sure about this as it seems drastic and i'm terrified of losing her under the GA. is it really necessary and what alternative course could we take?
thanks i would promise to stop harrassing you all for abscess info but I kind of don't have a choice
