Hi everyone. My little Misty went in for a spay today with a suspected tumour (booked in the day of this conversation: https://www.ratshackforum.com/threads/vaginal-bleeding.36141/
Turns out she had something "very strange" in her womb, which has now been removed.
She's my third rat to have had a spay, and she's by far the one I'm most worried about. She's puffed up and side-sucking and seems to be struggling to walk. The vets gave her opioids but I'd like to help manage her pain. Does anyone have dosing levels for ibuprophen and details on how soon after an op/opioids she can take other painkillers? Also, will metacam help?
