A Picture A Day..

Poor angel. I hope the vet can come up with a solution. My Nigel didn't respond well to Vetmedin either. I wonder if dropping the Vetmedin but increasing the Benazapril is an option. An old friend used to have her pig on a really high dose and he thrived for a few years.

Will think about increasing fortekor and discussing that with the vet once (hopefully) she recovers from this. She tolerates it amazingly well with fortekor, no side affects whatsoever. X

"Mummy says i should let u all know I'm feeling lots better. I'm off my gripe water and just on some tummy meds now for a few days to be safe. The vet said i am a brave girl and if mum didnt act so fast, i wouldnt be well like i am now. I am back to eating all my veggies (still little bits), my hay, pellets and even my oxbow senior tablet. I popcorned this morning as i felt very happy and comfortable. Thank you all for your well wishes! I'm off for a nap with mum."

This is such a lovely thread, capturing all the cuddles in tough times. The support is wonderful too from everyone and I'm so glad! I do hope she remains happy and feeling better :nod:

You are a beautiful little piggie, and I suspect you may have had professional training to become the model you are today!
Wishing you all the very best :hug:

"Hi everyone! Mummy said shes sorry she hasnt posted my picture a day since last week as she has been quite poorly. She went to hospital after my bedtime meds 4 days ago as she had a sore chest and problems breathing. She had an infection in her left lung and got some medication- the doctor looked at her funny when she said she had to be home by 8am as i needed my medicine! A couple of days later i had another episode of bloat, much worse than the first one. Mum stayed up all night giving me gripe water, laying me on a hot water bottle, massaging my tummy, letting me run around to move the gas, then back to bed for water and a nap.. Then done it all over again! Everytime mum put me on the floor i was moving about more as i was farting alll the gas away and felt more comfortable! Mum found the problem to be romain lettuce- i havent had anymore and my tummy isnt so much as even rumbling now! I am much better and mum says i am doing well and am the strongest lady she knows. I am extra chatty now too and like to sing at 4am! I had more floor time today as i am feeling great, followed by some veggies. Speak soon! (Told you i was chatty!)"
