I'm assuming that we will be able to get a scintigraphy (if that is the next step) since we are right down the road from the NCSU vet school...I imagine they have lots of resources and specialists.
I am really hoping that we do not have to go through the process of exploratory surgery/biopsy though. I'm not sure what to expect with this ultrasound but I'll keep you all posted and give an update tomorrow. I am of course hoping that they don't find a large shunt although that result will lead to even more questions and options we'll need to explore. Thanks everyone for the information and support. |
Thinking about you today! Hope all goes well, and you get some answers. I so envy people that are nearby a vet school that is wonderful you can take her there.
Keep us posted!
