Thank you. I am going to call our vet in NY today. She seemed to do much better on the Previcox than the Rimadyl. On 2 vets advice (the Mobile vet here and NY) I started her on the Previcox several days ago. It upset her stomach the first day, Hamburg/rice since. She still seems very week on her legs at times, but she is more alert and has better good moments. I wonder at this point if I should switch her meds again? You just don't know what will work and what won't. She had some jump in her step this morning barking at the dogs in the yard behind my house. You know that Rott play growl and serious defending tone....they are talkers. Thnaks much for the advice. I still have the Tramadol here also.
