Hugo loves her and the staff there. Ultrasound still doesn't show any signs of spreading as of approx 3 weeks ago - so that's great news.
He's had 1 treatment of chemo and no side effects.
The port that was placed b/c of all the radiation treatments was removed last Thursday.
Hugo's 2nd chemo treatment has been delayed b/c he white blood cell counts been a little low since the first chemo treatment. Wednesday his oncologist said she was going to do the chemo but at a lower dose. However, they weren't able to get to his veins... so we've decided to start him on Palladia 10mg (1 pill on Mon/Wed/Fri). I'm suppose to start him on it tonight. A little worried b/c I haven't read great reviews about it online, however, it could be that the reviews I've read were of dogs in a more progressed stage of cancer.
Anyone have experience with this pill?
Thanks for everyone's support and prayers. Hugo is doing real well. So thankful to all his doctors at VCA WLA! |
What a lucky little guy to be so loved and well cared for....
Thank you for the update. Prayers continue for your boy and for you....
