Hi everyone,

I have been relegated to crate rest yet again. The vet thinks that I have a bulge in my lumbarsacral disc. They are treating me cautiously with steroids to bring down the inflammation. Hopefully this will be effective and I will not require surgery (again! at least it's not my knee this time...). I am not presenting with terrible neurologic symptoms at this time. My parents were concerned when my tail started drooping and I started to refuse to go up and down the stairs. My regular vets thought I had a muscle spasm and put me on muscle relaxants and rimadyl. But to be safe they scheduled me with my surgeon. She took x-rays and spoke with the radiologist. That's where they think they see a possible narrowing of my disc space. I am a fighter though and I am sure I will be fine.

Please wish me well!
Licks and wags to you all,
Cammy
