More Kelsey Stuff

The results of Kelsey's scans and labs are back and they look good. We're just waiting for the pathology reports for the biopsies. There is just one problem. Kelsey has a rock in his stomach.

This has happened before. A few years back, he was vomiting uncontrollably, so I took him to the vet. The vet wanted to take a wait and see approach, but I insisted on an x-ray. It showed not one, but two rocks in his tummy. He was given fish flavored vaseline-like stuff to eat and the rocks passed.

Apparently, Kelsey is up to his old tricks. If the rock doesn't pass, then he will need major surgery.

His thyroid level is also low, but that is corrected easily with medication. Kelsey's regular vet told me his thyroid level was fine when it was tested at my insistence a couple of months ago. The cancer center, which got copies of his medical records, looked at the same lab results and said his thyroid level was one-quarter of a normal level. The regular vet has some explaining to do.
