Got Mikki to the vet today for her biopsy. The doctor said he would do the biopsy early afternoon so I left Mikki there and they called me when she was done. What was supposed to be a piece of biopsy ended up being the WHOLE TUMOR! The doc said there were enough margins around all sides except one..so he stated the 99.9% certainty of getting it all Of course it is "still" only considered a biopsy as the results will determine what's next.
My hope, is that it is something super slow growing...and if it grows at all, that it's not something
that spreads to other places. Results will be in about 5 days. Not looking forward to taking the wrap off tomorrow as she's a licker so we'll most likely need a cone until stitches are out in 10 days.
sooo.. the tech told us to keep her from running and jumping for 14 days! I had a big dog cage when we moved Mik and minnie out west... so got that out and put her in it. She went APE... stood on her hind legs and meowed horribly...so stressed! We let her out and she eventually just laid down peacefully . I bought painter's plastic to tape off certain entrances to rooms. She's not a runner... she doesn't jump high places but does go up on the back of the couch but uses the seat cushion.. I just can't keep her isolated all together for 2 weeks! Good thing, since it's her hind leg..she pushes off but doesn't "land" on it. We'll see.
I know she'll be a licker of her stitches.. wish we could keep it wrapped rather than a cone....
She was soooo hungry from not eating since last night! I had to give her little amounts a time as she wolfed it down. Thought for SURE it would come up! But it didn't!
