Mmmmm

So I have been away in France for a week.  Which was truly amazing.  I do need to write about this is another post.

Whilst I was away.  The vet had written a fairly wafty report to Rockley to which he copied in the insurance company.  The insurance company have pretty much advised they wont pay for Rockley as it doesn't come under any of their approved treatments.  I have spoken to them today though and mentioned that it was fairly short sighted of them as Rockley has an 85% success rate.... and Eager has Loss of Use.   She said they could right to the underwriters requesting it....Mmmmm thought you might LOL.

So the vet report read as below:

Anyway, because the vet wrote she was only showing signs of intermittent lameness.  Nic at Rockley then contacted me saying could I get some footage of her being lame.  I told her this wouldn't be hard as to me, on a circle.  You couldn't get much lamer!

So as soon as I got home.  Vikki came round to video.  When I noticed she was no where near as sound as she was before I went away.  Very short striding on the road but noticeably much happier going down hill rather than up.  Which I thought was a bit weird.  She also trotted up very short.  We then did the circle video.....  just awful.  Far from intermittent lameness.

Nic has responded saying its very interesting and very useful .  So mission accomplished.

I have phoned the vet and I am waiting for him to get back to me.  It is now clear to me she needs an MRI scan.  There is no point in me paying out for Rockley if its something that will never get better. 

As you can see..... not feeling as hopeful as I once was!
