[QUOTE="milkmaid, post: 512082, member: 852"] Glad you have a good vet RR. I have one of the best too... I'd of course insist he's THE best, but I'm sure there's plenty on here that would insist their's is the best vet. LOL. Point is that there are good vets, but there are also vets who know a lot from the books but have tons yet to learn outside the office. I've worked beside some and shadowed others. There's often a difference between what one reads in a book and what happens in the real world; sometimes it's an insignificant difference, and sometimes it's a major difference. I've had drugs suggested and treatment plans handed to me that should have worked on paper, but didn't work for that animal. On paper, oxytet is a good antibiotic. In the real world, there's a lot of resistance built up to it, and it often doesn't target the bacteria causing the uterine infection (often ecoli or similar, but where the cow had a csection the infection could be caused by anything including staph).
