Chylthorax

[Dawn53094]

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.

How frustrating for you! I don't know anything about it, but I know how I feel when something is wrong with any of my pets.

First, have all the prior tests been provided to the University?
Next, make them explain WHY they need each of the tests. when you understand it, you will feel better about it. And just because they say the neex x, y, and z, doesn't mean you have to approve each one. Often, my vet will list 3 things, Iwll approve 2 and then sign a waiver on one.

Any chance you can help with fund raising for their program? Will they take off $x for every 10 hours you volunteer, OR for every $100 you bring in? Only thoughts I have.

Best wishes for you and your pet!
