I dont know why any pain relief wasnt given...should it have been ...i didnt think to ask???
What do u think it could be? im so worried!!!!
There is no point trying to speculate what may or maynot be wrong. From the treatment given your Vet appears to suspect a severe acute infection. This may well cause an enlarged Liver/spleen.
The important thing to focus on is getting Liquorice warm and hydrated. If the Science Recovery feed distresses him then just give syringed cooled boiled water for now. You could add a herbal tea-bag to the water, I use either Camomile and Spearmint or Blackberry and Nettle. If you can contact the Vet and ask why no pain relief was given that might be a good idea. I can understand why a NSAID was not given ( Vet may have been concerned about giving a Non Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory to a Bun with an enlarged liver) but an opiate should be OK.
Please keep us posted as to how Liquorice is doing
