What a pretty girl! Glad she's back home and feeling good. Fingers crossed for an unremarkable biopsy report.

The vet called this evening. Apparently, normal range for a platelet count is between 150,000 and 500,000. Indigo's count was 154,000. So she is in the normal range but very low.

 

Doc wants to re-test when she does the suture removal in 14 days. Pathology report should be back Wednesday.

 

More later.

Doc called this afternoon. The path report is back.

 

It is BENIGN!!! :confetti

 

She says it was an epidermal occlusion cyst and that we got it all.

 

Things should be all good.

 

Thanks again to all the GTers for positive thoughts!

When I took Indigo back for suture removal, they drew blood for a second platelet count. Her previous one was 154,000 which concerned the doc. This one was 180,000. So...more good news!
