All The Drugs
Jo was quite limpy yesterday evening, and had a restless night (to the extent that Mike got up to get her more drugs).
I took her to the vet this morning, and she has indeed lost a couple of kilos. We had a chat, and have increased her steroid dose. It was a bit "the maximum dose is so much per kilo, which would be 1.5 pills twice a day, anything more would risk long-term organ damage... 2 pills twice a day it is then".
On the plus side, he's fairly sure that the limping is because the lump is squishing her nerves, not because it's actually painful in the joint.
