Poor baby passed out like this coming home...
1) BAD NEWS: Well today was EXTREMELY long. ZERO sleep last night. We also had very loud storms here. Andddd my alternator is going out on my truck. Almost didn’t crank several times. Brand new battery too. Sigh.
Went for our visit with specialist. Sigh..well what I worried about most is exactly what happened. NO ANSWERS. They don’t know what this is. It’s one of 3 things. Something embedded in neck we can’t see, A bacterial infection picked up from maybe inhalation or something or such or its cancer. So we discussed her heart issues and mentioned an EKCO. I have wanted to do this on her for yrs, I didn’t know anyone around here did these. Then we discussed surgery only if her heart was ok. So we did the EKCO today. The specialist looked at it and told me her opinion but is sending it out to a cardiologist to take a look. ---->

2) She feels her heart is in pretty good shape considering and most likely can handle the surgery. Oh back to surgery. The surgery would remove the polyp/cavity/tumor and also allow for a biopsy to see if it is a tumor and/or malignant.
Now the even worse news….The surgery will cost $5000. If we don’t do surgery she will have to live on antibiotics for the rest of her life. And yes I know my dog is older but you know what..she’s in pretty good shape for an old dog and she may have several yrs left..or more..who knows. We would do this for our elderly if it gave them a chance at life..even if it was only 6 more months. And yes even surgery is risky…all of it is..medicine is risky. We all know that. Anyway she sent us home with 2 prescriptions to get from my local pharmacy cause they will be cheaper. She increased her antibiotic medicine dosage another 150mg per day. ---->
