Sunshine is going to have to have another surgery tomorrow. As you
know, he began having discomfort over the weekend. Took him back to the
vet's this morning and they did an X-ray and found a bladder stone in
the urethra. Apparently they could not see it from the angle of the
previous X-rays.
Although my vet flushed the bladder during surgery (and, if I understand
it correctly, the water came back through the urethra and penis) to get
any possible "invisible" stones out of the urethra, a stone remained
behind.
My vet said (I'd already figured it out) that there is no choice about
the surgery.
Whew. Sunshine is also on Baytril, twice a day.
All healing wheeks, good thoughts, and prayers much appreciated.
