3vagreys Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 Stampede's vet just called. His test showed lymphoma. We're waiting for the oncologist to call so we can make an appointment. I just want to throw up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fionasmom Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 I am so sorry. In just over a year I have dealt with Lymphoma in three dogs (including one foster). I chose not to use chemo but if you have any question in general, feel free to pm me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tbhounds Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 Sorry to read the news about your beloved Stampede but, please don't give up all hope. Many times lymphoma can be pushed into remission. There are many different treatment protocols recommended, however, I urge you to contact Dr Couto (Greyhound Health and Wellness Program) at Ohio State University to see which chemo protocol he would recommend to be used on a greyhound. They is no one else I would trust more than Dr Couto. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest K9Cookies Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 I'm so very sorry. We had an extra year after Bonnie's lymphoma diagnosis doing chemo with the help of Dr. Couto. Please have your vet email him to discuss the options available. Chemo medications are provided to you at no cost through the OSU Health & Wellness program. Dr. Couto's email is couto.1 @osu.edu Don't hesitate to PM me anytime. I saved all of the information and chemo protocols of Bonnie's. A book I ordered right away at a GTer's recommendation was "Help your dog fight cancer", by Laurie Kaplan. Definitely a very good read...her dog also had lymphoma. We're here for you.

Guest Smiley Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 I am so, so sorry. Sending you and Stampede many, many hugs. I do believe that you could get a free consult from Dr. Couto at OSU regardless of the type of cancer. He is an absolute angel and very, very helpful.

macoduck Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 Every minute with Stampede will be even more precious from today forward. We lost our 13 year old Comet to lymphoma.

DaisyDoodle Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 I just want to let you know that my CoCo lived for 28 months after I found her nodes to be enlarged. She went through a year of a Modified Wisconsin Protocol and 3-4 CCNU treatments of a "salvage" protocol. She left us at 14 1/2 cancer-free, as best as we could tell. There is hope. Remember to breathe. It can be a roller coaster, but lymphoma can be a manageable disease.

Guest K9Cookies Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 Please send an email to Dr. Couto and get his recommendations. He will usually reply back quickly, if he's not traveling. I know it's overwhelming, but hang in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
