Everything has been fine in the world of Harlea for weeks now until this morning. When we woke up and took Harlea out to potty before breakfast we noticed she was limping a bit on her back right leg again. So we did the tests the vet told us to do when she was first diagnosed with Pano last month and sure enough she is a bit tender to the touch on the long bone just as she was the last time. Just to be safe we took her to the vet again and all agreed after another round of xrays that the bone was indeed inflammed again.
We knew one she was originally diagnosed that she would continue to have flare ups from time to time until she hits the age of 2. However, this got me and my wife really thinking. We went back and looked at our calendar to compae dates and the first episode last month happened the day after we gave her heartworm pill and the limping this morning started after she had her heartworm pill last night. So we are curious to if this is just a coincidence or if she may actually be having some type of reaction to the heartworm pill. We asked our vets and they didn't think it was likely but didn't rule it out entirely. She has been on Sentinal since her first dose and the first time she was perfectly fine so we are starting to get confused with trying to identify the triggers for this.
Any thoughts form my bully guru friends is greatly appreciated.
