I forgot to mention that the vet recommended rechecking his blood to determine before starting steroids because we want to make sure that they will help. She also mentioned that if it is actually cancer that is hidden somewhere, putting him on steroids would prohibit the option of chemo down the road. I am hoping that we are not missing cancer...
She wanted us to wait until the morning to start the Cerenia. He seems to have the biggest issue with vomiting at night, so she wants him to keep the Cerenia down long enough for it to take effect. We will start in the morning when we have a better chance of him actually keeping it down.
Came home from the vet and he wanted to play soccer in the front yard with me. He started running round and was shaking his soccer ball around in his mouth like he felt great. I guess we will see how things go tonight. Hopefully the Cerenia can start helping him feel better and the other meds will fix the issues. If not, we will re-test and determine the route from there.
Thanks for all the help ladies. You have no idea how much help you have been... I feel like you are saving me from drowning... I will update in the morning.
