She is still being fussey with her food and wants me to feed her from the spoon to begin with which is fine and then she will eat from her bowel. But i am worried that this will become a habit which she will expect every feed time.

Thats good news- metacam is great, I used to use it for Del's arthritis.

re the feeding if you let her get into the habit of being spoon fed then you'll never get out of it. Now her pain is being managed she is probably just being a fussy madam.
