When I first mentioned Protein C to the vet, she seem not to know a lot about it, so I took her printed material (from LadyMom on p. 1 of this thread), including how careful to be with test, and how to send to Cornell. Vet still pushed for ultrasound, and said IF LS is found, then we wouldn't have to go further. She seemed to indicate that Protein C wouldn't detect LS, unless I am confused.
I'll feel much better when the more experienced vet/surgeon is back in their office next week and can talk to me.
Stressful and frustrating.... YES. But, just for today I'll do what I can and get supplements, and work on her diet, and mostly just hug her to pieces. She is such a sweet angel, and senses my concern, she acts like she wants to comfort me. |
