Rimadyl

Lucy was given Rimadyl for the inflammation of the disk. It worked well and blood tests showed no liver/kidney damage. However, when that brand ran out, we were given the generic version (Novox). Within 3 days her appetite diminished. I thought it was because we were camping and this is often her modus operandi. However last night and this morning she hasn't eaten a thing and vomited up whatever was left in her stomach. We're going in this afternoon for another blood test. Awful. I feel awful. She hates the vet and now, with surgery in two days and weeks and weeks of discomfort, I have to bring her in for a blood test. My fingers are crossed she's okay.
