What a downpour of a day. It was such a scary drive into work again today. I seem to be a big girls blouse in that torrential rain these days but thank goodness I’m driving Bertie the Beetle now.
It was a mean and moody Monday.
We’ve been trying to get prescriptions for Khaleesi’s pain meds from our Vet and they called me at work today to say they had to get clear kidney function tests before they would give us a prescription. £164 they said.
They had to be done today or tomorrow so I came home from work, let the dogs out, fed them, made sure Khaleesi had pee’d and poo’d, ate some lasagne and back out to the vet without remembering to go to the toilet myself. 🤦🏻♀️😂
She was such a good girl at the vet.
They told me they would take her through the back for the tests and could be up to 25 minutes. They would need to shave her and maybe in a couple of places, in order to get the bloods…
5 minutes later she’s back out. A very good girl, all done and no shaved bits at all. We sat to wait on results.
She got a bit bored waiting on results….
By the way, the white paint on her tail is from the sunroom… 😂😂
45 minutes later and TWO HUNDRED AND SEVENTEEN POUNDS and FIFTY PENCE down.
How can that even be possible? I’d joked with Craig’s that 5 mins of blood tests vs the forecasted 25 must be cheaper…. Yeah right.
I actually sound really down in my wiring today and I’m not really, least I don’t mean to be.
I feel a bit flat today and it just felt a bit unfair having to pay so much money to be told your dog is fit enough to have the meds that she needs to reduce her pain. As I write that, I guess you wouldn’t want anyone to prescribe something that would hurt your dog.
The meds are SO much cheaper on line than they are from the vet….. so much cheaper…. but you need to pay £30 for a prescription to get them cheaper on line. That prescription will only last 6 months.
It is what it is.
Craig had the candles all lit for me coming home!
Feet up with Khaleesi now!
Stay safe everyone ♥️♥️♥️
