Hi,
As you may know pepper has an abscess at the base of her ear, we took skull xrays in may and there is some increased density in the tympanic bulla. As we were given a poor prognosis for surgery and due to pepper not dealing well with anaesthesia we decided to palitate as necessary. She is currently recieveing ultrapen LA injections every 3 days ( which have been making no diffrence ) & metacam everyday to help with pain. She is now starting to lose alot of weight ( she was quite a chunky bun before at 3.1kg! ) she now weighs 2.65kg. Shes also starting to get sore from all the injections we are giving her
Im so stressed as I have no idea how to help her. And was just wondering if anyone had any ideas ?
would oral abx help ? I realise that I cant do anything about this abscess without surgery but I just want to make her as comfrotable as possible in the mean time....
