Hi Everyone,
Sorry I haven't posted in awhile...it has been a tremendously busy year!
Since I posted last, my husband and 6 (yes, 6) kitties have moved from So. Calif to Ontario, Canada then to Las Vegas, NV.
Lucky has had Hyperthyroidism for the past 2 years and is still on her meds and was doing well until about June.
She had to have tooth surgery to have some teeth removed. All of a sudden she was sneezing and sneezing blood no less. After the surgery, she continued to sneeze, but no blood and no residue. Then about a 2 weeks ago, she started to not only sneeze, but have nasal discharge.
I took her to the vet, and she was x-rayed and had blood tests. The Vet stated it looked like Feline HerpesVirus. He has her on antibiotics, but has told me he would like her to have rhinoplasty (?) if the sneezing of blood continues. Plus in her x-rays, it may look like she might have a tumor.
Does anyone know how much cost I can expect it to be? She is 15-16 yrs old and they do sedate her to take blood, so I am not worried about her going for surgery, I just don't want her to have any more pain or problems with her sneezing..
Thanks!
Ana
