    I too would start with a CALL to the vet. Tell them that you are uncertain as to your next step.

    on one hand you wouldn't want to end up taking her "too late" and on the other hand you would prefer not to traumatize her with the trip.

    Hopefully they won't be the type to just AUTOMATICALLY say "bring her in".

    Can you arrange a home visit by the vet?

    just like you are having AIDS, feeling fine until it's too late.

    I think I should keep calling, bothering until I get a few opinion/option(s) that move us further - the tumor shouldn't keep getting bigger.

    do you think you are sure you have tried everything, every test?

    and for halo to be checked by someone, vet could come!

    prayers? always available! {{{halo}}}
    rest and sleep softly sweet locke..

    I'm sorry to hear this. I agree with the others that you should call your vet and explain what's going on. I hope that everything will work out and that Halo will be fine. Lots of prayers and positive thoughts are being sent her way.

    I'm sorry to hear this is going on right now. I agree with the others about calling the vet and explaining how you feel the stress and anxiety she experiences bothers you, and you;d like to know if a home visit was possible.

    Perhaps the vet will ask you to explain what is happening and they'd then determine if a quick stop by your house is merited or if an office visit is necessary so that he/she could run Xrays and such.

    I agree with what Kim says.

    Since I don't visit cat health too often, I am just seeing this now and read the whole thread that you made earlier. What a scary time for you. I am so happy to hear that Halo is doing so much better and pray that she continues to do so. I also pray that the growth will shrink on it's own like the last time.
