Fracture update

No fracture. Hopefully. We took Claxton back to the doctor yesterday. The orthopedic did a very thorough exam of his food and leg. He didn't twitch the whole time he was being examined which was a great indicator of no fracture. We also learned that sometimes fractures don't actually show up on an x-ray until 10-14 days after the injury occurs. So we are going to monitor him a few more days, but we've ceased giving him meds as per doctor's orders. As of this morning he was still limping.
