Well ... erm, she is looking alot better when I went out to her at 1pm today ( an hr before vet came ) ..... She wasnt limbing as bad infact I dont think she was limbing at all ... the swelling had come right down and there was very little heat in it .
Vet came although she couldnt bring the scanner with her as it was in use at the practise, she had abit of a feel ( was different vet but same practise) ....She said that the tendon sheet ? ? was alil swollen still but if we can get her to rest it and not jump about it should heal . Also if I can flex it abit once/twice a day it would also help with the healing process , keep cold hosing and using bandage support .
If I find that its any worse by next week then she will go to a specialist and get ultrasounds done and treatment . Hopefully wont come to that , so another weeks box rest for her .
I have moved her into a much smaller stable as she tends to act the edjit alittle and get excited when she sees me or amanda .
She at the end of the stable block where she can see out abit more wheras she was at the very back in a massive stable .
I have cut out her hardfeed for the mean time and just giving her very little as its obviously going to make her excitable . Vet has also up the doseage of bute to 1 and a half morning and evening .
Sooooo thats about as much as i can tell you all ...Thank you all for your wonderful support, Im afraid Im going to keep needing it for alittle while longer
