Over-treat vs. under-treat
It's difficult to find a veterinarian who's down-the-middle, isn't it?
Mac, eating almost nothing, has been to a vet every day for the past week as he inches to diagnosis. Currently thinks it's strep, though Mac hasn't responded to antibiotics yet. "We won't biopsy his swollen maxillary glands yet because the thigh ones are OK, and I've never seen a dog with half-lymphosarcoma." Blood panel OK. Just changed antibiotics and gave him a shot of pred which he says will help flush away toxins. Guess I'll hang in a little while longer, then take him to a hospital which will take umpteen tests and have Mac in surgery within the hour. Am I a malcontent, or are others not content with the veterinary treatment you get? (Glad I wrote this. Seeing it on the screen reassures me that the vet may be doing all right.) |
