Re: Flynn 11 y/o Foxie Cross - Right adrenalectomy, 3rd Dec 2012 for Pheochromocytoma
:) I just let him lick my plate... gross I know but it was only a little smear on it!! I will take his food with me of course.
Everyone is a little worried about me driving so far in one day, I think I will take an overnight bag in case I get too tired and have to stop somewhere on the way home.
I just emailed the specialist his latest results and my questions. I do remember last time we went up there and he was in and operated on before I could take it all in!! That is NOT going to happen this time :p
Yes, he can never have too many good vibes being sent his way... I am sure he had a lovely day today because of them!!! How is Jaspser, hopefully you are off doing his update!

That is a lot of driving in one day, although it is not all at once. Still, that's a great idea to take an overnight bag just in case. No fun driving when you are too tired, especially if it's at night.
Good you emailed all your questions, you are always on top of everything! :)
No, I'm not working on Jasper's update now, but I know I am delinquent with that! Poor boy doesn't even get his thread updated. :o He is holding his own for the most part, but I do need to get things updated. He was in for his Percorten injection last night, and has gained a pound over about the last month or two also. That's not so bad because he was so skinny before, but don't want him any heavier than that, he is at 26.5 lbs now. But he has gained since we switched to the low fat food, go figure.
He will be getting labwork repeated the beginning of March to recheck the triglycerides and electrolytes as well as liver and kidney values. I am going to ask for a UPC also as I am worried since he is no longer on the renal diet. He seems to be feeling good most of the time I think, but I have noticed that he seems to be sleeping more. On the weekend he slept most of the day both days. But I am grateful that he is able to sleep peacefully. Hopefully that is nothing I need to be worrying about!

I would be sleeping the days away in that cold weather you are having, I cannot imagine having to go out to work and negotiate all that snow. I always notice if I am not doing much and having a lazy day Flynny does too, but if I am zooming about he follows. Funny how they seem to regulate what they do. Jasper sounds like he is doing well, like you say he can do with a little more weight on!! Flynn does not need it so much :rolleyes:
Darn, I was waiting for his update to pop up too!! But we get a mini one here so that is enough to know he is doing good!
I don't think we have had trigylcerides done in ages, wondering about the link there and his lipomas which seem to be getting bigger lately. I have that on my list to ask IMS.
Mike would usually send the latest results, but he is on his last week off so thought I better do it but I did cc him in too.
Re: Flynn 11 y/o Foxie Cross - Right adrenalectomy, 3rd Dec 2012 for Pheochromocytoma
Yes, I don't blame him for sleeping with all this cold, wish I could too. We had freezing rain overnight last night, so it was a scary drive in to work yesterday. But it warmed up later and is supposed to be in the 40s and 50s F later in the week, so we should get some good melting.
I took Jasper in a couple of weeks ago to have all his new lumps checked. They had been put on the back burner for so long. We finally mapped them all out on a diagram because there are so many now. She aspirated 4 that she felt were new ones, and all were lipomas thankfully. I didn't think about a connection between those and his triglycerides, but I will ask her next time. Could make sense since his are so high.
I better head back to bed for a bit. These interrupted nights are going to be the death of me. But anything for my boy. Again, all the best for the scan and appt tomorrow. Will definitely be thinking about you both. Good to catch up a bit. Drive safe, and I will check in on things later. :)
Big hugs from me and Jasper xo

Night Tina, I am off too for an early night! Lovely to see you and have a catch up!! My fingers will be crossed you get some nice warm weather so Jasper and Shelby can get outside for decent walks. Glad to hear all his bumps checked out! Have a good sleep for whatever time you have left and a good day at work :). xxxxx

Hey you two, by my calculations it's 7.20 am and you should be on your way. Fingers, paws, eyes and anything else I can cross for a good outcome. Will pop by later see if there's an update. Flynn you can do this wee guy as you deserve a good result :D
