thanks, yes i have about exhausted all the internet research. Its not that I'm being swindled,, its that I'm not sure I'm willing to pay for more tests when i'm thinking the ones we've already done and paid for support idiopathic chylthorax and the more time we take taking more tests, waiting for results, she feels up with this fluid. We have to take her in today and thats another 200 to have her drained. Its only been a week. The University may be more extensive knowlege but they are also very slow in getting animals in.
