Corrine-
  I'm sorry to hear Cinnamon Bear is ill & I know it's really hard on you. It sounds alot like what we went thru with Albert when his kidneys were failing. 
  I don't know what the bumps would be from. I do know know on the many occasions Albert had subq fluids it formed a little hump on his back (like a camel) & some fluid would leak out just a little. The vet said that is normal.
  I would not give any more Metcam then the normal dosage, but I don't think you could have  damaged his kidneys with just 2 doses of a little extra. That seems like a ridiculous thing for the vet to say.  My vet said giving them too much Metacam can affect their appetite & just generally isn't a good idea. I gave Albert extra Metacam a couple times too, because I was so worried about him. It kind of puts them into a stuper & he wouldn't eat & just was generally "out of it". 
You just didn't want to see your baby in pain & it's understandable that you thought giving more Metacam would help. Don't be so hard on yourself. 
  Just know you & Cinnamon Bear are in our prayers. Keep us posted.


***JAIME***, Molly the new pig in town! & Albert always in my heart.
