No big changes today. I did take Cosmo off the pain medication. He swam for 15 minutes. He seemed eager to swim longer but I did not want him to over do it.
The strained left leg seems to be back to normal. We are back to dealing with the original injury, the CCL tear in the right leg. I am happy about that. The idea of both legs injured at the same time was overwhelming.
I called the company that makes Cosequin DS. I wanted to keep him on the 4 pills a day dose but needed to know that it was OK. The bottle says to reduce to 2 pills after 4-6 weeks. He is doing well on the 4 a day, so I do not want to change. They assured me the dose is fine. They basically stated that some people prefer to lower the dosage due to the expense.
He is taking: Cosequin DS 4 pills a day (2 morning/2 night)
Fish Oil 2 pills a day (1 morning/1 night)
No more pain medication (only want to give as needed)
Still massaging the leg twice a day
