TinyMityMo Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 (edited) Last week I was rubbing Bailey's belly while she was roaching and I thought I felt a mass. When I compared with Murph his belly was all soft but hers felt like it had something firm in it. She's been playful, waggy and happy but on and off her food. I was too busy last week to get her in but I took her today. The vet agrees it is a mass on either the spleen (more likely) or liver (less likely). She said since she seems to feel fine it can wait a few days til after the holiday. She wants to do ultrasound before she goes in so she has a better idea of what she's up against and the soonest they can do that is Wednesday. If it's on her spleen they'll remove that since it is a time bomb waiting to rupture. If it's on her liver she'll judge what to do then. So if you all could keep Bailey in your thoughts for a few days I'd appreciate it.

TinyMityMo Posted December 24, 2009 Author Share Posted December 24, 2009 Can I ask?? Why didn't your vet take an x-ray?? Hoping for a good outcome!!! she did - two views. She's pretty sure it's the spleen but wants to verify with the ultrasound too.
