Worried About Roscoe


Recommended Posts

Guest twhitehouse

So glad to hear about Roscoe's improvement! Hopefully it really was and is an allergic reaction or an infection of some kind.

 

Looking good Roscoe! :colgate

Hi all!

 

Roscoe continues to show improvement.. you'd almost never know he was sick at all!

 

Still waiting on the biopsy results.. any day now. I will update when I get them.

Ok... slightly worried.

 

Yesterday this saggy neck skin was almost gone.. just a tiny bit left.

 

I got home form work 45 minutes ago and it's saggy again. Obviously saggy. :( I felt around in there, no lumps or swelling. No pain. He is otherwise acting and looking normal.

 

Am I just being a worry wart?

 

 

ETA: The internal medicine specialist called me this evening. He got the biopsy results. It appears to have been a severe inflammation. They did not see any cancerous cells. They did find some bacteria, but think it just came from the mouth. ?

 

Course of action is to give Roscoe another round of antibiotics once the current ones are gone, and watch him from there.

 

So I'm not going to worry about what I posted earlier! Time to chilax. B)

That is the news we have been waiting for :clap ....exhale Lisa. This infection may need another round of antibiotics....this whole episode probably started when he was "zoning out" and just festered.

Yay for the biopsy, and serve up the next round of antibiotics.

 

Roscoe, time to really get better and stop worrying your humans.

Great news! I'd go for another round of antibiotics if he starts swelling again.

Hi-- reading through this thread as it came up when I searched for what might be going on with Aleeya (see thread here aleeya eye ) -- right now, some mysterious thing going on with her eyes, pressure in them, presented the same as in your first thread about Roscoe.

 

They also said "uveitis" and now after reading about it, I'll be f/up with my vet tomorrow (and not wednesday if I can get in before Haka's toe appt) and then taking the e-vet up on the offer for the opthamologist appt at their place...

 

I'm glad Roscoe is feeling better after all that scary tumor/swelling/xray stuff. Did his eyes clear up too?
