 Update!! Great news!!
This morning we finally saw a fantastic specialist for Dolly's cancer. He researched, treated, taught & wrote about cancer in animals for 40 years. He's retired now & helping an old student 3 days a week in LV. He said he wouldn't have removed the bump that the vet removed during teeth cleaning because the removal releases something (antihistamine?) that can dangerously lower blood pressure. He'd have left the bump & injected it with something(?). So now he's going to inject the site with a steroid 3 times at monthly intervals. He said Dolly's prognosis is excellent health the rest of her life, this was just a little glitch. What a great feeling to have nothing to worry about & to know I have a nationally known specialist on my side! Dolly's very happy she doesn't have to undergo additional surgery & Mommy's happy to save $700.
Thanks everyone for caring about the outcome. |
