Guest koolaidnconner Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 (edited) he had to go to EC overnight. Once they opened him they got the first testicle out and it definitly has a tumour on it but they are sure they got it all as it was incased. It was about the size of a lemon. They did find tons of scar tissue and found that Conner was very cose to having a torsion(I do believe this is what it s called). One part of his insides had many holes and his intestines(I think) were peeking out and were about to go inside out. I can't remember all the fancy medical lingo. Anyways he bled a lot and the they took awhile to find out where the bleed came from. It took 2 doctors to complete the neuter in which he was a cryptorchid. 4.5 hours under anaesthetic, they did not do the dental nor the lump removal on his tail. He did wake up and seemed okay but I was not comfortable bringing him home after all that. I will go get him in the morning before I go off to work, and then he will stay at work with me for the day!
