Good news for Bear!
No horrible anything showed up on Bear’s ultrasound. There are indications of non-symptomatic Cushings Disease which is not fatal and with no symptoms, not much of anything, i.e no treatment needed, just keep an eye on things.
I really liked the vet – he listened, took time and was very gentle with Bear. Internal stuff is his business so he has a VERY good ultrasound machine and is VERY good at reading it AND explaining to me. Bear did not need to be shaved and he was comfortably on his side and relaxed with me scratching his ears. Except for the fact that both Bear and I were TOO warm in the clinic, it was an easy and non-invasive thing and I am happy to have met this vet as well as I feel confident about his findings and the information he gave me.
So, no follow up appointment, no further tests and no surgery and scary thing goes on the back burner!
Bear and I are beat!
But, I am so glad we came in the motorhome. We finished up at 4:30 and no way would I want to drive home. I am glad we can all relax and enjoy this evening.
Auggie did a bit of yowling before he settled, but he was out and about shortly after we parked and got set up. I brought some of his toys which he promptly found and he has settled into RV mode!
Not sure what we will do tomorrow. I have a mid-morning meeting. I’ll decide in the morning what to do after that.
Thank you, thank you to all who lifted us up with good thoughts today. Getting the motorhome ready to roll, driving down and the vet appointment all went so very smooth. HOO – RAH!!!
