  • Fingers crossed B is ok 👍 on the meds . On the air fryer subject I just got a 2L one for me and I use it a lot for all sorts of things . Haven’t used my oven for months .

    My friend's dog has been having those injections and is fine. 
    I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)
  • that drug made such a difference to our dog.  she was 16yrs and 8 months old when she passed.  we would not have had her for as long if the pain could not have been managed.  it's also been around for longer.  hopefully it'll work out for you

    Hello 👋
    I’m hoping the drug works for B. Just remember on all the health sites whether they be for humans or animals…..people post the worse cases. The good cases are just accepted and never written about.
    I’m really pleased working 2 days a week is working out for you. 
    January spends - £587.58
  • Reading about side effects is scary - I hope B isn't affected but I know you'll keep a close eye on her and she needn't have the drug again if you're unsure. Just an outside chance, but maybe the sausage you treated her too was a bit salty, hence the thirst? Chip shops seem random in how much salt they add.

    DH had a bad reaction to some medication which has possibly also been the cause of damage elsewhere - so I know these things happen, but in a way, you feel you have to try things to find out if it alleviates the symptoms.
    B is still drinking like crazy and of course as a result weeing loads. She wouldn't eat this morning but did eat her tea. I don't let them pu any alt on her sausage but not sure how much they contain as an ingredient

  • I do hope things work out for B. I can only echo what @milann wrote. 👍
    And I do hope B enjoyed her sausage!😀

    Thanks she is very thirsty but ok so far. I looked at a 2L one the other day and it seemed like a good size for someone on their own. It was a cheap one in Wilkos though so I'm not sure how good it would be

    Oh that's good to know. There's lots of positive stories out there so I'm hoping she will be ok 😊

    Thanks for this reassurance . B is 16 now and I worried because people were saying it wasn't safe for older dogs. Realistically I know she isn't going to be round for much longer and I would rather have her  PTS than cause her even more problems but if it keeps her pain free it will be worth it. I think now it's a case of quality of life and not quantity. It's good to hear that your dog was ok on it
