Busy and hot!

Today was a pretty busy day, we were barely at the surgery again. We started off bright and early and went to see about a possibly LDA. It turned out that it was a RDA, do we didn't get/have to do surgery. I was kind of bummed but I've seen an LDA before, so it wasn't too bad. We have some motility drugs and the cow was pretty smelly with diarrhoea so we took some poop so see if it's salmonella. Then we went to another farm to see about a possible anthrax case. It was a highland cow, so I was gutted that the first highland cow I got close to was a dead one! So sad. So we took blood then went on the PD some cows, they were all negative so they will most likely be culled.
We then went to a farm I've actually been to before to take some blood to test for BVD so they can go to the highland show next weekend, so they don't spread it to anyone there. Then we went to see about a poorly calf, which ended up dyeing while we were there, it possibly had meningitis, but we ended up putting it to sleep while it was basically dying, so sad. Then we gave some lectate to a scoury calf. Then bad to the surgery to check the blood smear for anthrax (negative) and have quick lunch. Then we went to look at 2 twin ewe lambs that all of sudden had gone downhill, took some blood and fecal samples to test for various things since we were unsure as to exactly what was wrong with them. Then we got called to a bullock that was doing poorly, but it pretty much seemed that he had heat stroke, on this "hot" Scottish day, it's 20C just to put that in perspective! Also just found out that I passed all my exams! All As and Bs to my surprise (except phys, which I passed and that's all that matters!) so now the rest of my summer can officially begin!
Also I got to draw blood from the coccygeal vein today woot!
