Oh, Kelly, my heart goes out to you - I would be so scared too. I really wouldn't know what to do either. Are there any vets on this board?
I would ask them:
- What would they use to reverse the IV anesthesia (Narcon or ?)
- Why do they think IV is safer in this case?
- Did they use a barbituate w/ the gas? (bc they shouldn't have)
- Is there any such thing as a non-anesthesia option using a combo of an epidural, pain killer, and muscle relaxant? (not likely, but worth an ask?)
- What is the incidence of prostate cancer in non-altered males?
Tough decision. I wonder if it would help to wait until he's a year old...?
Btw, you're close to me - I live in Phoenix!
