I'm glad you posted this here!
I for one never heard of this and don't know if it's in the US as well... but It's better to be safe than sorry.

I'm so sorry for the pain you've felt after lossing your Jake, please know that you're not alone. We all grieve together, for our own pets and the pets of other's here on the board. We're a close knit group of people that love their animals like no one else does.
Kind of like a secret underground community.

We're all here for one another, please check back in when you can. Fell free to tell your favorite stories of Jake or tell us about the silly things he did. We'll listen!

I hope for the best for your blood work results and I pray you are healthy.
