He said he stomach still doesn't feel right. I told him that I know when she is going to have an episode as her poo goes light just before. He said that points to liver issues. He said it is difficult to feel the liver as it's behind the ribcage but what he could feel seemed normal.I told him about her tail waving all the time so he emptied her anal glands which were full of dark-brown gunk - he said it should be clear. He said although it could cause her discomfort, it wouldn't cause bleeding. He has booked her in 1st thing monday for an ultrasound scan and said hopefully that will pick anything up. He mentioned an exploratory so I asked about endoscopy. He said they don't do them and they are really for upper intestinal issues and he thinks Alice's are lower which an exploratory is more suitable for. He said it's not as bad as it sounds as they open them from the sternum which is low on a cat, to just below the belly button. He said the other advantages are they can get a good look and if it isn't obvious, they can take samples. Strangely, just at the end he said there is a remote possibility that it was the result of malnutrition - ie when you think of biafran children with pot-bellies when they were starving. He said he would have expected it to sort itself out by now though if it was that (funnily enough it's what OH said he thought it was)
He said, she is in no immediate danger so it's a case of elimination - he said it is frustrating.
