Re: Very worried about Samson.
Thanks everybody, just thought I'd give a quick update.
Samson's biopsy results are still not back!, his thyroid levels are still high though, and the vets are now talikng about a thyroidectomy depending on his biopsy results. I'm really not keen on this, but we will see how things go- he may be able to go up one more level of his meds, although it isn't really recommended.
In the meantime, Tabatha was in for her thyroid check and kidney test. Her bloods were not great- both liver enzymes were up, her urea is up and her white blood cells were up. We have put her on a course of antibiotics and await the thyroid results. At least for the moment she isn't in CRF yet.
Smudge was in today for both her thyroid check and kidney check- she is now in the early stages of CRF too.
Jimmy had his thyroid check today as well- both their tests will be sent off and we will see what they say.
Tomorrow Spice and Misty are in for kidney checks and Spice for her thyroid, we will see how they are getting on.
On Friday, Deli the dalmation is in to get her liver checked and Fluffy will be getting a check over, FIV/FELV test and a thyroid check. Hopefully Fluffy will be clear and she can join the others in the rest of the house!
I know it seems a sadistic doing all this before Christmas, but they are all due and I would rather know how well they are entering the New Year- if that makes sense.
