to you and Issey

Re the Odema try masaging her foot this pushes the fluid back up the leg - we had to do this with our RTA boy Puma - he now looks for all his feet to be played with daily

GOod luck with the results and hope all goes well - nice neat wound done by the vet to

Just rang the vets and her results arn't back .....
One of the VN's is going to ring the Lab this afternoon though.

I don't feel too well today, got an upset tummy

Think it is nerves.

Issey is doing well, no swelling and is in the garden...with stitches still untouched

Did the vet give you any painkillers for her? If not, I would ask them for some today

Desley I have Metacam here and gave her some before I went to bed last night.
Is there something stronger I can ask for if she seems in pain today ?

She is sitting in the garden this morning....seems ok so far

I was thinking though how brave animals are, When my Nan had her lymph node removed from her armpit she was in hospital for 3 days, had 2 drains and needed looking after for a longtime.....animals are so amazing

Michelle (furbabystar) · « **Reply #63 on:** March 17, 2009, 19:39:59 PM »

She's not so good this evening, She seems to be in abit of pain....Cant get comfortable and when she does (mainly on my lap) her tail is swishing !
It is also starting to swell abit which i was warned about (oedema).

But thankfully she has left the stitches alone

Good luck Michelle.

Did they give any advice re making sure she doesn't get any cuts etc. I know my mum has to be extra careful after having her lymph removed.

No they didnt Mark....but I knew there was something when You had one removed.
Thanks I will ask my vet when I speak to him Thursday.

He did say to keep a close eye on it as it could swell uiet alot.....
I know in humans they put a drain in

I don't know if it is the same for for cats but she said you lose immunity in that area which makes sense. I don't know all the ins & outs though - even though we did something on lymph fluid in biology. I think it is moved around the body by natural movement of muscles.

Issey is home....

Vet removed the whole Lymph gland rather than doing just a biopsy.
She is doing really well considering she has had quiet a big Op ....

Results should be Thursday

Thank You everyone

I am praying like crazy...I REALLY cant lose her

Have spoken to a couple of hospitals this morning, cant believe the fee's they charge

Sadly Issey isnt insured and the thought that I wouldnt be able to save her because of money is making me feel sick.

Anyway.....I'm getting ahead of myself really....i need to relax and wait till i know for sure what it is

Thanks again xxxxx

All that goes for me too

Hoping that either the antibiotics work, or as Mark says that it turns out to be benign.

Sorry to hear the antibiotics haven't shrunk the lump yet - hope they start working over the weekend.

Desley (booktigger) · « **Reply #39 on:** March 12, 2009, 21:02:09 PM »

Have only just seen this thread, fingers crossed the biopsy shows it isn't anything serious - it does highlight the importance of not ignoring lumps assuming they are just fatty lumps though

clarenmax · « **Reply #38 on:** March 12, 2009, 14:25:57 PM »

Hope the antib's kick in and do their job by then

Millys Mum · « **Reply #37 on:** March 12, 2009, 13:57:50 PM »

Fingers crossed she responds

Tiggy's Mum · « **Reply #36 on:** March 12, 2009, 12:28:58 PM »

Have everything crossed that the anti-biotics do the trick in the next few days and no biopsy is needed
