12 1/2 y/o dog with cancerous tumor on face. Want to save her please!
Wednesday, September 2nd, 2009Hi,
I have a 12 1/2 year old female mix who has developed a tumor on her face.
It started as a cyst on her forehead and has grown into a huge mass in her mouth palate in the last 8-9 months to her mouth palate which bleeds quite often.
Almost every vet we visited suggested to just and make her comfortable and nothing more. So they have prescribed prednisone, iron, multi-vitamins and something to stop her bleeding.
A new doctor we met recently encouraged us to pursue chemo.
My parents are not so confident about this option as they feel she is old and this would only cause more discomfort.
I was wondering if you could give us some suggestions as to the success rate of chemo in senior dogs and pros and cons of not getting chemo, in terms of her suffering as time goes. And based on your experience would you put a senior dog through this?
Thank you very much.

Feline upper respiratory infection
Sunday, August 30th, 2009Hi,
I don’t know if you can answer me or give me some advice, but anything would be appreciated!
I recently got a kitten from the Humane Society and he ended up having a URI. He is now on antibiotics.
My already 8 year old cat now has a very runny eye. It is just the one eye and it is squinty and with clear/yellow colored discharge.
I asked the vet about it when I was there and he said that since she is older, she will probably be able to fight off the URI. He said to just keep and eye on her.
I am however a little worried. I have been applying a warm compress to her eye for as long as she will allow me to, a few times a day.
How long should I wait before bringing her in to the vet, and are there any over the counter eye drops or creams that you could recommend to me for her? And is this a common symptom of URI to have only one watery eye?
Thank you so much,
From a worried cat mom!
Cat with a descending duodenal large cell malignant lymphoma – constipation problem
Saturday, August 29th, 2009My cat is 8 years old. She was diagnosed with a descending duodenal large cell malignant lymphoma that is creating an intestinal blockage. She has lost a lot of weight and is on 200ml daily subcutaneous fluid and baytril injections for an infection; also she was given a depo medrol shot for the lymphoma. She has been on this for 2 weeks now.
She looks interested in food but she will not eat.
She pees 2-4 times per day and her fever from the infection seems to have broken. She is pretty alert but she seems to be straining to defecate. She passed a very small dry stool but she seems to be constipated.
We think that if her bowels are emptied that she will be less nauseous and will start to eat and gain some weight and strength back. We think the dry stool was caused by the blockage when she started to not drink and no fluid was passing her blockage and her stomach was full of liquid that she kept vomiting. She was vomiting a lot of fluid for about a week after we started the subcutaneous fluid.
Should we take her into the vet to see if she can give her an enema or stool softener?
Could an interacation with the rabies vaccine caused my dog’s death?
Friday, August 28th, 2009Would you happen to know if there could have been a drug interaction with a rabies shot that my dog had.
She had a congestive heart condition and got progressively worse after the shot and died within 3 weeks of getting the shot.
I am heartbroken and need to know if I did something wrong in getting her vaccinated.

Doberman with scabs around his neck. What is it???
Friday, August 28th, 2009I have a 8 month old doberman and he has developed sores that are just scabbed over around his neck and a few on sides and a couple on his leg.
I took him to the vet yesterday to get him examined and the vet did a blood culture. Vet said that it was probably from mosquito bites. Recommended a mosquito and fly Advantage treatment.
When I brought him home and went to bed he began to have the runs and vomited all his food up once. The runs lasted till this morning and I made him stay in his crate and rest today.
This afternoon I noticed that there are many more of the scabbed over sores. I am really concerned. I travel and am not home to take him to my vet.
ANY IDEAS WHAT THIS COULD BE?????
