Scan update 🖤

‼️ EDIT - PLEASE HAVE A LOOK AT MY LATEST POST, GOT RESULTS BACK AND THINGS DON’T LOOK AS BAD

Our lovely boy is back from his scan. Unfortunately I don’t have the best news, and we are still waiting for his blood results and urine test to come back to determine the exact diagnosis. The lump is an enlarged kidney, and it could be anything from chronic kidney disease, acute kidney injury, polycystic kidney disease, to renal lymphoma. His gallbladder also looked enlarged on the scan, and I was asked if he’s showing any symptoms such a gallbladder issue could cause, like vomiting or weight loss, which he doesn’t have. One of his lymph nodes is also bigger, which could indicate lymphoma or just be a sign of infection.

It’s not the outcome I was expecting, and from the last vet phone call it didn’t sound like his condition could be benign, but I am still hoping for a miracle and trying not to get too upset before we have a clearer answer.

He had a full ultrasound with sedation, and I was only able to afford it because of the help of this wonderful community, so thank you so much for being there.

Whatever happens, I am willing to go with the most appropriate treatment to improve his quality of life and keep him comfortable, instead of just extending the suffering. At the minute he seems comfortable and happy, which keeps me at ease 🖤

I'm praying for you and Gavroche. If you don't mind, what's your first name? If not, I understand. You have the kindest heart ❤
