Treatment #5: Tim and I both went to treatment today. Last Friday, winter had arrived. Today, it is spring again. While the snow has not all melted, it is in the 40’s. The other 3 dogs – Glamis, Summer and Teva - went to day care today. At the Drs. I asked about the welt. Kathy didn’t know what I was talking about. I showed her and she said they don’t inject there. We will make sure we don’t use that leg today. Ok. So no real answer. Odd, he has a mysterious needle mark and took twice as long in treatment. I’ll let it go for now and Tim will learn to ask questions. Today’s treatment was 30 minutes, no problem. I also needed to find out what to do if I find more lumps, talk to the oncologist or our home vet. Answer: The oncologist will check them for us. Arri does have two more lumps near his collar bone. They are too small to do a needle biopsy so I will wait to point them out. The previous lump in similar location was benign.
We have started giving Arri his food 3 times a day. He gets the same amount but now gets a ‘lunch’ right after treatment. He has yet to get medicine sick or car sick so this works out well. He was pretty glassy eyed today but by the time we got home, he was his normal goofy self.
