    Oh man Dec that doesn't sound good. You have already made the right decision. The internal stuff alone has just sold me, who knows how much that bugger is hurting. I think she should have some stronger pain meds than tramadol, just for the short term, until you can bring her in. Maybe they can give u something stronger if they know u gonna bring her in soon when u can. Sh*t that really sucks man.
    You already know the answer to this guy. Just too hard to accept it. Hopefully you can keep her comfortable until u can get her in. Cook her you favorite dish, some rare steak. Maybe even a lil of your fav. beer. It will make u feel better to spoil her.

    she is due in tomorrow again for yet more testing, thats why im thinking that i should just phone the vet and consider having her put to sleep. i needed to ask for opinions cos i didnt know if i was doing the right thing
