Finnsliz Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 (edited) 9/3/14 Just got the call from Dr. Curry. No cancer cells found in her lymph nodes! We just need to keep watch on them with her IMHA history. Huge sigh of relief here. 12 year old Birdie is behaving normally no issues. She had her annual physical today. The Dr found all her lymph glands enlarged to the size of a large olive. She took some fluid from 2 and sent to UNH lab for analysis checking for leukemia. Bird survived a nasty episode of IMHA a year ago last spring. I don't know if there could be any connection or if this could be a result of a compromised immune system. ??? Any way it will be a few days till we get any results so fingers, paws crossed it turns out to be nothing much. ***it could be lymphoma they are checking on, my brain tends to shut down when I hear bad words.

My blog about grief The reality is that you will grieve forever. You will not get over the loss of a loved one; you will learn to live with it. You will rebuild yourself around the loss you have suffered. You will be whole again but you will never be the same. Nor should you be the same, nor would you want to. ― Elisabeth Kübler-Ross Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
