Xray Results
20 March 2023
Hi guys. I fiiinally have an update for you all 🙏 After being booked in three times over the last 2 weeks for her xrays, and the vet not having time to actually get them done (they've been so busy with my other two 😮💨) we managed to finally get the xrays done this afternoon! She had her shoulders, elbows and wrists all xrayed!
The scans show no breaks (phew) but they do show action (more movement than normal) in both of her wrists (worse on the left). They also show that she was seriously malnourished as a pup and her bone density is not at its finest 😢 This means no strenuous activity for her otherwise it could result in a break 💔 I'm sad that humans failed her this way. The good news is that she doesn't need surgery. The bad news is that there is no quick fix or cure. She will now be on pain management and bone & joint supplements for life to help support her through life. There is possibly ligament damage so ideally I'd like to do an ultrasound to see what's going on soft tissue wise but that all depends on givealittle donations. Thank you all for your donations and kind words. Sorry for the delay in updates but we are finally getting the answers we needed 💕 Thanks for following Akiras journey 🥰
