Wordy Wednesday

Ok, well not terribly wordy.

But, some friends have been asking for an update on my ouchies.  Still, no one knows what's wrong with me.  All we know is that the pictures of my internals all look good and I was still in pain.  Since the Prednisone cream cheese worked previously to relieve my ouchies... I'm back on it.  Mr. Dr. Mike is hoping that a more aggressive treatment of it will hopefully knock out whatever is causing the pain.  So, I'm on it the Prednisone cream cheeses twice a day for 8 weeks, then I start the weening process.  I've been ouchie free for a week now, but I'm still on restricted activities... although mom and dad have been sneaking in some short walkies to keep me happy.

Dad noticed a bump where my belly connects to my leg... so I'm going to see Mr. Dr. Mike at the V-E-T-S tomorrow to check it out.  The momma says it could be something as silly as a buggie bite -because sometimes I have weird reactions to them -or it could be a cyst or tumor... she doesn't think it feels like a buggie bite, so we'll see with Dr. Mike has to say.  Maybe that's been the cause of my ouchies all along!  Although, I'm sure someone would have felt it before now... but who knows, right?

See the arrow?  That's where my bumpy is...
and this is an old picture. 
Back when I could play fetch.

So, that's my update.  If we find anything out on Thursday or Friday, we'll be sure to update you.... but more than likely, we might not have an answer until next week.  And, next week I won't be around the blogville's much.  I'm going to make up some posties to post while I'm not around so y'all don't forget me, but I won't be able to update them with bumpy news.  But, I'll be sure to update you the following week if anything happens.  Sound good?  Eh, I know.... but it's the best I can do!

You still love me, right?

  13. Thanks for the update, Corbin. We figured there couldn't be any new news or you would have told us. We hope the latest meds work and knock that sucker out of you for good.

    Good to see your foster sister found a great home, but we know you are missing her. Maybe time for a new monkey:)

  23. We're still keeping our paws crossed for you, Corbin. Glad your internals are looking good. It sure is frustrating not knowing exactly what is wrong or how to fix it.

  24. Corbin, thank you for the update. Mommy says a prayer for you every time we come to visit you. I am glad the creamy cheese is helping. I get bad itchys and Mommy gives me cheesey(prednisone) for it and they go away for a while. I hope your bump is nothing. I had some bumpys and the doctor said it was nothing at all just some fat deposits or something like that. Corbin please get better.

    Loveys Sasha
