Thanks everyone for the replies, it was reassuring. Unfortunately the antibiotics didn’t work and she has gotten worse and there is much more blood. She has also been wobbling when she’s walking, we suspect it is a tumor making her struggle. We explained this to the vet and said we don’t want to put her through scans since she’s so old and asked for pain relief which they refused and said we should just observe her for the weekend and bring her in again. I’m not a vet so I may be wrong but this seems like bad advice, I don’t want to watch her continuously get worse knowing she is in pain and not helping. Would it be reasonable to order metacam online and figure out the dosage myself? I know that she’s 150g.
