Does it always run really horribly over each ankle! Was told it at college a few years back, and it stuck in my brain cell (it was obviously with me that day)!

Well, I hope you are feeling better soon! Cant have you out of action here now, can we?!!

I know the correct dosing of paracetamol/ibuprofen/aspirin/panadol in case you require some assistance? Make sure not to take any doggie tabs now, wont you?

Now I was actually thinking of dosing myself with some leftover 500mg noroclav, seeing as my script is amoxyclav....could save myself the prescrition fee

[/quote]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I wouldnt do that ST!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Surely that will interfere with the cascade???????? hehehe

Ouch! Hope you're feeling ok and the pain/soreness goes soon. I was bitten by a toothless gummy cat today if that makes you feel any better?!

I find some of the little terrier types as scarey as ferrets - some of them can be really nasty scratchy bitey creatures - and they always manage to twist their neck to get you when you feel the worst is over

Thats exactly what it did Sal.

Not nice!!

I was helping pts a dog last week who we think had a brain tumour because she kept fitting. She'd ripped out her IV and she wasn't fitting at the time. I lifted her up onto the table and she completely fipped out and was going mental trying to bite me and the vet. I had hold of her scruff and was trying to hold her still so the vet could get a muzzle on her. Managed to get one on her but I was sooo sure she was going to get me!

Hope you heal ok!
