Elvis has colic, the vet thinks Left dorsal displacement Left dorsal displacement is a form of colic where the left dorsal colon becomes trapped above the spleen and against the nephrosplenic ligament. It may necessitate surgery although often it can be treated with exercise and/or phenylephrine, at times anesthesia and a rolling procedure[clarification needed] must be performed to correct the condition medically. This condition can be diagnosed on rectal examination or through ultrasonography by a veterinarian. The vet treaTed him last night but said if he got worse he would have go go to Newmarket. I was hoping to get him out to lunge when the sun rises but he's getting worse so we may be on our way to Rossdales in the next hour.

Oh no, sending good luck vibes, Rossdales will look after him if he has to go there, but not your wallet How is he now ? I am assuming you took him to Rossdales as you've not been back online since 7:22am
