Physio advised me to take Ellie back to the vets . Took Ellie to vet on Wednesday (not my usual vet as she in on holiday). He advised twisted hip, gave her metacam and advised two months rest. I am :( for wee Ellie as she was running up like a looney and it didn't seem to be bothering her. I feel so guilty, as I feel I have competed with her too soon! I would never have ran her if I for one minute thought she was not ready! After each run I kept a close eye for any lamness, there was nothing. She ran her runs without any signs of lamness too! She was flying round the courses, loving every minute! Ellie's eyes just light up when she does agility. Anyway kinda' went off on a rant there.
I waiting until the metacam is nearly finished and going to go back to my usual vet for a second opinion. I would like xrays done to rule out any further problem - if we can rule that out then we know we are defiantley dealing with ligamnet, soft tissue damage. How can it go from twisted knee to twisted hip.

Oh dear, I hope Ellie is okay. A second opinion is definitely needed! Wish Ellie all the best.
ReplyDeleteI hope Ellie will heal up quickly. I would get a second opinion too. I've never heard of twisted hip?
ReplyDeleteOh no, so sorry to hear about Ellie's twisted hip. I hope she gets better soon. It will be good to go back to your usual vet and have her checked out. Hope she is better soon!
