My beloved cat Ghosty is anorexic from illness, and we are awaiting test results from “cell test” from sonogram. he has thrown up everything past 4 days and with diarrhea. He is taking Cerenia and an appetite stimulant, but it’s not helping. It has been helping before, this past month, because he was digesting food and not throwing it up. he would eat, but only a bit at a time and very very finicky. He just yesterday had sonogram, Dr says he has “enlarged Lymph nodes in his tract” (?.. I thought lymph nodes were only in neck area?) I researched this and points to lymphoma possibly. I just started force feeding him with syringe yesterday, but he still throws it all up. I ordered Liquid Gold and can give him subcutaneous fluid with i.v. if needed, which I probably will soon. I just left a message for my vet, asking for help, ideas what we can do.
I was the one that asked vet for the Cerinia and syringe to feed him. Before that, every test and X-ray was inconclusive and no treatment was ever offered or started! I feel like I need a different vet but this one seems to be the best out of the 3 I’ve had in this city. Sorry for rambling.
Advice? I know if he doesn’t keep food down soon he will get weaker and pass. I have money to treat him. I’m hoping Dr will say surgery will improve his tract and will allow him to digest food. Even though this will probably cost like 1-2000 I am guessing.
