They said the Rymadil I'd been giving him would be fine for his pain. I think they were full of it. If he does have to go back, I'll insist on some real pain medication.

He's doing much better. He's adapted to the collar and, though the stitches are very loose, I think they'll do alright. When I wake up in the afternoon, I take the collar off and give him a break. He's beside me rubbing his ears and grunting. On his back, of course. What a character.

Rimadyl is a pain medication, usually used for arthritis. There are MUCH better and SAFER alternatives out there though. We don't use Rimadyl at work anymore and haven't for about 4-5 years. We mostly use Meticam and Zubrin and have had much better results with fewer side effects and no liver damage.

I am so relieved! I just got a voicemail left from the vet. The lump is benign! PT prayers worked again :D
