Thank you, thank you, thank you for your sweet words and helpful ideas! Mike, I will mention osteomyelitis - very interesting!
UPDATE:
Had full body xrays on Friday and vet went over them with me...she sees NO signs of Valley Fever in the bone, nor any nodes that would indicate it either. What the heck...? However, she is sending the films to a radiologist for them to pour over with a fine-toothed comb. All limbs looked perfect, as did spine/neck, and organs.
We are all clueless
. If still no direction after radiologist, then our vet will schedule a conference call w/ an internist to determine what next.
If no answers come, then it looks like we'll need to look further at those elevated globulins for indicators of cancer
...I can't even deal with that. The internist will guide us as to that testing.
Talked to her about Lymes -- and she pretty much thinks there is no chance of it unless we had traveled to an area that had it, and we haven't. But of course she said we can test for it if we want.
Luckily...his mood is good...and his appetite is still doing great - which is *such* a gigantic relief! If he wasn't eating right now,
you don't even know how much I'd be totally freaking out! Actually, you probably do
.
Thanks again for all your wonderful support...and if you think of *any* ideas, don't hesitate to mention them!!!
