All we need is some good positive thoughts. Foxy has an appointment for a checkup tomorrow night. I am pretty sure she has gained back some of the weight she lost. She will have afine needle aspirate done of the lump she got over a year ago. It gets bigger, then shrinks again, we're still believing it's a cyst.
Her Laryngeal Paralysis has worsened, but is still controlled with the occassional dose of pred.
What worries me is my DH thinks she has had a seizure. He has seen her have some fairly violent leg and body movements when she is sleeping. I saw that once, but when I poked her she gave the to go to he** look. There have been no vacant stares or moments when she's disoriented, so I'm hoping she is just having some wild dreams. She also arches to stretch either while laying down or standing and her whole body shakes. That doesn't seem to bother her one bit either.
We'll discuss her immunizations then too, since she is 12 1/2 I want to cut them back. She'll get her blood work up done later this month by the ladies who come to do the blood donor clinic.

Good news! Although her weight is down a bit since the last time, her hip bones aren't sticking up anymore. Our vet thinks she probably lost since the last weigh in and is now gaining. We'll get her weighed again in a couple of weeks time.
Everything else looks pretty good and her muscle tone is great for an old lady. The vet doesn't think she is seizing, probably just having busier dreams. Again, we'll monitor her.
Her lump, which is now two lumps are cyst like and are still clear fluid with no bad cells,
No immunizations this time, and we'll know about her blood work when it's done in a couple of weeks. Whew! Now I feel better.
