Took Daisy to TED
Between this group & another cat group I belong to, the stories of how
cats hide their illnesses were getting to me. I have personal experience with this, too, with Bonnie (RB). Daisy acts fine, eats fine, her weight is fine. But almost all of her behaviors have changed in the last few months. So I made an appointment that took 10 days to get b/c I wanted the partner who is aggressive & a good diagnostician, & I wanted an evening appointment. We went tonight. As he was looking at & feeling her, he was saying everything seemed fine. Then he got out the stethoscope. Hhe listened to her heart for a v-e-r-y long time. This of course made me nervous. Hhe ended up saying that she has an irregular heart rhythm (not a murmur). He said that cats can have this & it often is not a problem. But of course she's never had it before. The result was that he took blood & we scheduled an EKG for Tuesday. He'll call me w/her blood results Friday AM at work. So Daisy, Miss Moxie & I would appreciate a group purr that all her tests turn out OK, & that having an EKG is not too horrible for her. She'll have to be in all day Tuesday while I'm at work. Has anybody else's cat had an EKG? Thanks, Katz |
