Will def check bloods this week though </p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/68642?ContentTypeID=1Wed, 25 Jul 2012 08:31:53 GMT146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:9001916e-4054-493b-8081-4583babb0353James Laidlaw<p>Doesn&#39;t look like anything spectacularly abnormal on the x-ray (although I&#39;m happy for someone to prove me wrong) - BUT - you do really nead at least 2 views with an inflated chest to assess the chest perfectly.</p> <p>I&#39;d start with bloods as well.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/68640?ContentTypeID=1Wed, 25 Jul 2012 00:18:39 GMT146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:b306ca57-6c09-4de7-9be3-ff5663db4c3cMichael Woodhouse<p>Don&#39;t forget Idexx does vets own bloods half price. </p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/68637?ContentTypeID=1Tue, 24 Jul 2012 22:45:01 GMT146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:af24a7af-b95c-4a23-9482-6b9f69f3facbMark Hedberg<p>I&#39;d run a blood sample through a blood analyzer, interesting what you can pick up there! :)</p> <p><br />Welcome aboard!</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/68636?ContentTypeID=1Tue, 24 Jul 2012 22:39:12 GMT146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:f9c503e7-01aa-405c-870a-48fdb4e43702Julieg<p>Thanks niall - the link is:-</p> <p>&nbsp; <a target='_blank' href="http://s1149.photobucket.com/albums/o587/julieg111/">http://s1149.photobucket.com/albums/o587/julieg111/</a></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>hope it works, haven&#39;t used the site before</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/68633?ContentTypeID=1Tue, 24 Jul 2012 22:27:22 GMT146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:fa212d53-f652-4a8b-85f7-8b2577893038Niall Taylor<p>Welcome to the forum Julieg <img src="https://www.vetsurgeon.org/emoticons/v2/Very_happy_smiley.png" alt="Very happy" /><img src="https://www.vetsurgeon.org/emoticons/v2/Thumbs_up.png" alt="Thumbs up" /></p> <p>[quote user=&quot;Julieg&quot;] ps sorry the xray is not brilliant positioning wise and don&#39;t have a VD as yet as she wouldn&#39;t lie straight!

A GA for rads based on what you describe might be a bit OTT.</p> <p>Niall</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/68631?ContentTypeID=1Tue, 24 Jul 2012 22:26:06 GMT146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:df6f7c3c-248a-4b24-add6-14211df3c5a0David Mills<p>Hi try uploading the photo to something like photobucket.com and posting the link here - can&#39;t really see the image very well at this size</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
