Well, believe it or not, after ME suggesting to my vet about all of his seizures he was having, and all of the symptoms, he didn't seem to do anything other than bloodworks, and you are right... evidently it just didn't seem to show up- which I couldn't believe, since he'd had it since like November. That was the month the seizures started, and he passed away in January, and just went for his shots and annual check up the week before. It's just sort of sad, with all of his experience and knowledge that he didn't even think to do any further testing at all, nor suggest it.. and as I said, it used to cost me 100$ just to walk in the door, that wasn't with anything added. If he got shots, and/ or meds, that was additional! My hopes are, that Lee finds out what's going on with her baby- and maybe can suggest to her doc to do the MRI for tumors.. and MAYBE her vet will listen! LOL
