My understanding is that ketamine is not good either...

Phaewryn, Tell them *NOT TO GIVE -* telazol. nasty, nasty. Saw TOO many "healthy" babies have reactions, and even "death"..... There are other injectables, but, for (what's left of) the life of me, I can't remember..... I just "know" working in our low cost clinic, the vet thought it best to use injectables..... Cheaper too, sadly.... I "lost" a foster after her spay..... Now, I insist on ISO (sorry, don't know what it is, except isoflourane). Also, I insist on having IV fluids run during surgery. And, post-sx, Sub-Q fluids to "flush out" any remainders of the anesthetic.... And, due to my loss, I even do it w/ ISO surgeries...... ISO is a gas, very "short-lived", and I have never had a "bad" experience w/ it...... I also insist on it for my ferals, my vet gives them a low dose of valium to "relax" them prior to surgery...... I wish you and your baby the best of luck...... And, oh, I did have ISO used for a dental........ Hugs, Patti
