Neat and clean wound.
I hope she begins to eat a bit more and starts getting back to normal.
When will you have the C&S results?

Today's update.
I'm quite down after the vet check. Although he was pleased with how the wound is looking and that the abscess site is dry, I was concerned about her eye as it looked a bit mucky. We had tried to bathe it as she's not grooming that side and Dr Will is not being very attentive. Vet put some fluorescent dye in her eye and poor Nancy has an ulcer. - possibly a side effect of the abscess. So we now have eye drops and another check up on Thursday.
She had lost a little weight since last Thursday but not enough to cause concern.
Vet hopes to get the lab results tomorrow and will call me if we need to change her meds. He also explained potential problems with the lower teeth now that two top ones are no longer there.
On a more cheerful note, she's eating very well today.:thumb:

Abscess update - yesterday Nancy's wound was a little weepy. Vet took the scab off and there was a bit of pus. He thinks it may be because the additional anti biotic was started late. He said the tissue underneath looked healthy and there was no evidence of the abscess reforming at the moment.
The wound is now left open, to be bathed twice a day with cooled,boiled salt water and then packed with Manuka honey.
Another check up Thursday.
Despite all this she is still eating well and has put her pre op weight back on.
