He's on steriods


Oscar is officaly on steriods for his arthritis Deomasophide or something like that, excuse my spelling. The vet said if it works which he see's no reason why it shouldn't thento pop back every 4-5 weeks (he said we will see when by watching Oscar) but it should help. Oh and to cap it all he has a heart murmur - aquite bad one but hey its his age. I said to the vet I don't mind the murmur as long as his heart is still beating l

Re: He's on steriods


Seems not Mags but as long as he is healthy (for his age), happy, eating, drinking, popping to loo, talking and not in any discomfort then I am happy even if he can't run a marathon mind you neither can I.

Thanks though both,

Re: He's on steriods


So sorry Kazz. At least you know what it is and can treat it!! Glad the worry is over for you.
I'll keep my fingers crossed for you.
