    My cat was diagnosed with stomach cancer but I’m confused.

    Hi, yes I did contact them and I am now deciding how I will proceed. It has been a very emotional few days and I’m going to post an update below. For now, I’ll have to put a pin into going further with making sure this vet never does this to anyone else. I just have to much on my plate right now...

    My cat was diagnosed with stomach cancer but I’m confused.

    UPDATE: I wound up taking him to a 24 hour hospital at 2am. Luckily I did. He was severely dehydrated and after evaluation, I was told he was in really bad shape. I explained everything that occurred thus far and they immediately started supportive care. His heart rate and blood pressure dropped...

    My cat was diagnosed with stomach cancer but I’m confused.

    i just read your post again and I’m wondering, when they did tests on your kitty, do you remember what was abnormal? Did ultrasound show any mass or tumors in order for your vet to diagnose? I’m just curious because our ultrasound didn’t show anything at all, nothing plus all other organs...

    My cat was diagnosed with stomach cancer but I’m confused.

    Hi and thank you.... see this is what boggles my mind, there are no tumors , nothing was seen on the ultrasound. I’m waiting for vet to call me back now.... if it was an obstructed bowl, would they see that? How about Pancreatitis, would they be able to tell just from a CBM blood test? Then...

    My cat was diagnosed with stomach cancer but I’m confused.

    Hi Sabian, I’m not sure if I’m replying properly, I’m new to this site but thank you so much for responding. She did say she gave him fluids under the skin, I didn’t see her do so and he wasn’t there in the back long. No IV though. I’m a bit relived to know that it’s not just me that believes...

    My cat was diagnosed with stomach cancer but I’m confused.

    Any advice at all would be helpful. My cat was totally fine then suddenly started throwing up through night. Took him to the vet that morning. An X-ray was done and showed some fluid in his belly which I was told was normal because of the vomiting and he was dehydrated. Next, an ultrasound was...
