oh yes hes on metacam now for pain but also because it is supposed to help with the swelling of the discs
when he comes off that in a week we have to wait for a few days then we will put him on steroids to ease the swelling of the discs
i guess right now the crucial thing is to make the discs go back to the size they should be so they dont infringe on the spinal cord or nerves which would be really really bad for sebastian
Pokey's test results are back
-
I just checked the offa.org site for Pokey's results, and it came back as probable carrier. I am so relieved because both his parents were probable carriers. He is still young yet, so strip testing is a year away at least in our future.

Wonderful news! And good on you for strip testing in the future!
-
Yes, good for you for knowing to strip test even tho you have had the cheek swab done!
-

You must have really been on pins and needles waiting for the results. I'm glad the news offers some room to breathe for now!

and I love the picture of your babies. I love the independent nature of a shiba inu too as much as I do a Basenji.
I think there will always be a concern about fanconi, but this was a good day.
