during the blood test, the lab in Aberdeen found Strange Abnormalities in Misty's Plasma
and had phoned the vet's to see if they could do another kind of test to determine what it was, Misty has now been diagnosed with " Lymphosarcoma "
( Cancer of the Bone Marrow ) I had a very good/long talk with the vet going through all the option's chemotherapy/steroids and the side effects, but
just like Misty's CRF there is no cure, I was also told that even if I put Him through this it still might not add any longevity to his life, there's just no telling?
I had asked would he be in any pain if I decided not to go through with the Treatment (because of His age) and was told Just like the CRF condition there
is no pain, It'll just make Him feel a bit Lousy every now and then. The vet also told me that it was this that Caused his CRF to begin with, and His new
blood result's have confirmed that the state of His Kidney's have worsened over the past year.
Can't really think of anything else to say at the moment, I feel so Rotten and Down
Misty's been with me for such a long time (My First Pud)
Prognosis from diagnosis is 2 - 9 month's
