Thanks for updating us Sharlene.:p So glad it all went well. Now the waiting game continues.

Sharlene, thanks so much for the updates. I'm here with you also Trish. I thought about you and that little boy all day today at work. I knew his scan was scheduled for your Wednesday, but this time I didn't have the exact times nailed down. I kept the positive vibes going, but you know me, I like to know the times. :rolleyes:
I'm very happy with the news about his liver and adrenal, that is such a relief. Of course I don't like the news about his stomach. Flynn has been so brave and has conquered every other challenge he has faced, so I am thinking positive that this time will be no different. Glad he did well with the biopsy.
Paws up Flynny Boy!!!
Drive safe on the way home Trish, what a long and stressful day for you. Thinking of you guys.
Big hugs from me, Jasper and Shelby xo

We are home thank goodness. What a trip, in pouring rain again.. plus fog. Flynny boy travelled pretty well, getting fed up the last couple of hours and he is pleased to be home, hungry, got the temgesic irritability which he often gets with that drug, cries... licking his legs a lot. They gave me Codeine Phosphate for pain, so hope that has not upset him too. No rash, tummy nice and soft so I think he ok and hopefully he will doze off soon.
Thanks for updating Sharlene, to hard updating here on my phone, yep scan showed no growth in that adrenal node in the last six months. Liver a big bigger overall but no growth in those nodules Yay again. BUT there is the 1cm mass, external to stomach in the muscle right next to pylorus (exit valve from stomach) we are of course hoping it to be benign. I have had a brain wave this afternoon, you might remember the chicken skewer incident back in May. 9 cm of pointy stick chewed into two pieces that he swallowed and they gave him apomorphine to puke it up which he did. OR the manky fish episode about 3 weeks back, he vomited up fish bones that afternoon. Then became quite unwell, with pain, vomited once a couple days later, then diarrhea, vet saw him and though IBD flare/colitis and gave him antibiotics. Poops still bit off, but he has really only perked back up last couple of days. So after I left the specialist, I emailed and asked whether it could be either of those episodes potentially perforated a tiny hole.. maybe not big enough to cause serious trouble but an injury none the less. He has answered that Yes, that trauma may well have done it. So now we are hoping it is something like that rather than the other options of cancer, lymphoma. I guess the biopsy will tell, hopefully have results the next couple of days. ALP had gone up 300 odd over last two months to 1442, but ALP done about 40 to 300.
I also asked him about the proteinuria, he said Flynn is rewriting the text books about how well he has done for so long. He is due another UPC but have been holding off with this tummy upset.
He kissed IMS Mike and pranced about and he cannot believe how good he is for what he has had wrong with him... it cannot be another cancer as that would just be plain UNFAIR on him!! But we will deal with what we get dealt I guess.
Thanks all especially Sharlene and Tracy chatting for all hours, your always there for me and Flynn boy and we love you for it xxxxx

Just repaying the favour as you sat up many a night with me and woody.
Glad your both home safe and sound that has been a long day for you both. So we will wait with everything crossed for an old injury.:)
Have a good rest both of you x

Looks like I missed the five hour ride:o:o:o:o
I think maybe you could be right, Trish and that the skewer possibly caused a problem. We will keep that thought as we wait for the biopsy results.
Dang, can we just remove November from the calendar next year????
