Harvey limping again

A few months ago Harvey started limping, the vet said it was a sore elbow

A few days ago he started limping again on the same leg, had some metacam left and gave him that and put him on short walks, but last night he was really restless and was up and down all night, my poor boy must be in discomfort
He is sat on my foot and giving me his poorly leg to hold

So off to see the vet at 11.30, plus he is due his annual jab
Will lt you know how I go on

Update

Harvey went to see the vet and I thought it was the same leg but it is'nt!, its his other one!....anyway the vet has given him metacam for a week and limited excerise and is suggesting that we have him X rayed as she can feel a thickening on both his elbows, so we are getting it done when we get him neutered in March

And he was a great boy in the vets waiting room which made me all proud

X-rays sound like a the best course of action, at least then you'll know exactly what is going on.....Glad to hear Harvey was such a good boy in the vets...x
