She had some light blood in and on her mouth (not bleeding heavily), teeth look ok, no blood in ears or contusions I can find. She slept a while and is back to the moving around in a circle. Not spinning like a top but just not resting. I have only cared for 3 HBC's and none did this. I did treat one that fell from a tree onto a big rock and he went around in circles but stopped and was fine the next morning. Just want to know if I need to do something else for her. Thanks
Do you have or can you get hold of Predisone?
