Thanks 4feline. I am a little annoyed with the vet right now!! I did call and bug him again today, so now they're going to give me new meds and a shot to administer near his rear end. It's supposed to help with the pain. Yikes! I've never given any animal a shot before! Hopefully it will help. If not, I think you're right in that I should look into a different vet. I seemed to be getting the run around at this one lately! I'll be sure to keep you posted on his progress!
