Poor Fozzy! I am really concerned about him and the edema in his legs. It sounds like he needs to be seen again by your vet and have his blood work checked especially his protein levels. Low protein levels can cause edema in their legs. They could also give him some meds for pain as he seems like he is restless and painful. I am so sorry you all are going through this. I wish there was something I knew would help at home, but it sounds like he needs more medical attention.
