I went for a routine check-up with my senior cat (going to be 12 on March 30th) because she has the beginning of kidney disease and we've been dealing with that for around two years. She is also a very anxious cat and often has other health problems that pop-up and we manage. Her vet noticed a heart murmur which is new and decided to add a blood test to check her heart. She just left me a VM saying everything is stable, kidneys, thyroids, liver, etc. Except, her red blood cell count is a little low which she's seen before, and that she wants to re-check in three months and her heart markers were elevated. She suggested a cardiologist check it out (which we will do). But now I'm just sitting in my apartment crying my eyes out because I am imagining heart failure. Does anyone have any similar experiences? Advice?
