Hello,
It's been awhile since I've been here. My baby has been doing very well with her kidney disease. She's 15, just under 8 pounds and is happy. My husband and I were giving her fluids the other night and when the needle went in she she acted strange. She put her head down and just held it the entire time; which is not normal. Then, after the fluids were done, he pulled out the needle and she did her standard jump over my shoulder towards the door of the bathroom. A few minutes later I noticed she was walking strange. She started limping and crying as she walked. It's been 24 hours and she is still in pain. We've identified the issue is with her right back leg. She is still eating but just seems incredibly sad. She limps a bit when she walks and has limited energy. I'm just lost as to how she got injured during something we do every two nights. I'm waiting one more day to take her to the vet since she hates it so much and I don't think her leg is broken since she is not dragging it. Any advice is so much appreciated.
