Re: Think I'm going to lose him =(
Back from the vet.
Good news first, it's not impaction or cancer.
Vet tube fed him again, she was concerned because he's lost weight since his last visit.
She scoped his vent to see what the bulge was, and gave him an enema to rule out impaction. She says it looks like his infection is back (the reason for his last visit), so he's back on anti biotics.
So he's got an intestinal infection near the vent, which isn't good, but it's not cancer, which is good. Hopefully this round of antibiotics clears this up once and for all. I should have suspected it was a return of his previous infection (even though he never had a bulge before). I need to remember, when you hear hoof beats, expect horses, not zebras.
Oh well, nice thing about expecting the worst is that when you're wrong, it's wonderful.
