 Hemangiosarcoma diagnosis
I brought my soon to be 11 yr. old golden retreiver in to the vet because it was having difficulties breathing. They found a dark spot on the spleen and fluid around the lungs, and in the liver and spleen. Diagnosis was most likely cancer in the spleen. She was put on Lasix to reduce the fluid around her lungs and help her breath. She has shown a large improvement in just two days. Shows no distress when breathing.
Has anyone gone through this with their dog? Can you tell me what to expect if we do not proceed with the next step which would be exploratory surgery to see if the spleen is cancerous?
The vet is guessing she may only have a week to live. |
