So I changed Otis's appointment to today instead of tomorrow. Specialist could not really tell from x-rays if it is OCD in the shoulder or elbow or other issues. Will have to do CT scan under anesthesia. Scheduled for next Tuesday (pain meds in the meantime) rest, and no jumping or playing. If they find something during the CT scan, surgery will be performed then and there. Hoping this resolves his problem once and for all.

Also, received his allergy testing back, he is allergic to ALOT:

Food: Beef, Soy, Wheat and Peanut
Pollens: Brome, Red Top, Timothey Grass, Perennial Rye Grass, Russian Thistle, Kochia and Willow
Inhalents: Alternaria, Mix Aspergillus, Clasdosporium, Penicillium, Rzizopus, House Fly

So, atleast I now know even though I have a lot of research to do as most I can not pronounce nevermind know what they are.

Thanks for lending your ear (eyes) per usual - we appreciate it.

I want to have Oliver allergy tested but just haven't gotten around to it. WOW, some of those inhalants I have never heard of (House Fly is the only one I recognize).

Let's hope Otis' testing comes out okay
