Holly in stasis again

1.5 weeks ago Holly went into stasis ... Very quickly within 3 hours of eating her evening herbs. Took her to emergency vets and got pain relief etc and she was fine within 24 hours.

Back at emergency vets with her again. She at her herbs with gusto at 7.30 this evening....9.30 I checked her and could see at once she was in pain and not eating.

Her food has not changed. ..hay, ss pellets, fenugreek crunchies, dried dandelion leaves, fiba sticks, cone flower.
Poor wee girl...just wish I knew what was causing this. :(

Awwww, sending vibes....

Smudges tummy slowed due to his moult,,,,, he ingested loads of fur...? Is that a possibility?

Also I found that Smudges stasis episodes lessened when I took him off ss pellets and he is now on fibafirst?
 
What herbs did she have? It sounds like they are the culprit, if she was fine before having them... I hope she feels better soon xxx
 
Just dandelion leaves and blackberry leaves. ..Both dried. She's had them before. ..everyday.
She is back home now. .had pain meds, gut stimulant etc so just have to wait and hope she's okay in the morning .. If not then off she goes to our normal vet.

In future she will only get hay and a few ss pellets. ..she does love her hay anyway.
Just pleased I spotted it so quickly tonight. .At least she is out of pain now.

She is a bit better today.

Nibbling on hay and has drunk some water. ..but still struggling to poop...she is trying bless her.

Now.. The question is. .stress her out by taking to vets. ..or leave to relax. She is not in pain at the moment.
Problem is that I've got to have a blood transfusion today. . So cannot be at home with her. Hubby is already covering sick people at work so can't take day off.

Aaaaaggghhh.

Guess it's off to the vets. .. at least they can give her meds if she needs and keep an eye on her through out the day.
