I have posted about Lara before:

She has been given months to live due to growing chest tumours, 9 months at tops (this was 2 months ago) and she has been on Metacam for the last 2 months. I give about 0.9 once per day, she is 4lbs. The vet prescribed 0.15 but I don't want to go that high.
I don't like the idea of what the metacam can do to her - i.e. kidney, liver issues but also concerned if I stop the metacam, any pain from her growing tumours will increase. I do not know FOR SURE if she is in pain anyway, there is no way I know.
Ahh what to do....I want to do the best by her but don't want to increase health issues or ailments either!!:X
She is a rex so a BIG eater and drinker. She is not drinking anymore than usual (kidney) but HOW would I know that she is having liver issues??
She is breathing quite heavily, rocking back and forth....this might be the tumors on her chest. It has become more prominent. Aside from that, she is our normal bunny and eats and runs around......ray:
Anyone out there had their bun on metacam long term and have seen side effects?
