Back from the vet's office

[radfringe]

the old queen was wheezing,
doing some sneezing
got a shot,
she liked it NOT.
She's just a bit congested
and the meds she contested
a squirt a day
will keep the doctor away

seriously though, she's ok, we caught it early
:hugs: to all of you who have given your good thoughts and concerns...

1. Does this mean everything's okay?

If so, GREAT!

3. yes

she has a "dry" congestion, might be due to the woodstove and the fact she curls up next to it when it's running. We stopped running the woodstove on Thursday night, wheezing pretty much stopped by yesterday

but she's 18 years old so we were concerned

she also has a heart murmur on one side only - this may clear up once the congestion clears, she'll go back to vet after she is done with the meds for a re-check on the murmur - if it's not better then she'll need some more meds to keep it in control

vet said that cats can "handle" murmurs better than dogs

meanwhile, she's batting a wood chip around in the kitchen - feels better already - lol

and especially that she's back to feeling kittenish!
