[Jacob-list] Lamb having trouble breathing or swallowing?

[Betty Berlenbach]

Plain ol' vomiting and projectile vomiting, however, are two different things. My son had projectile vomiting as an infant, and it shot all the way across the room and landed on the opposite wall about 12 feet away.  Superpuke!  (Turned out he had pyloric stenosis, and had surgery at six weeks old. No problem thereafter.)

  I've never used it so I'm not sure. My neighbor gave it as a drench, so I assume she mixed the powder with water.  You need to get activated charcoal that is specifically for poison treatment. One of the symptoms of laurel poisoning is projectile vomiting, so that's what I think of first when I hear vomiting.  We have alot of laurel here.
