So the vet called back --

Fionn is doing fine, hasn't had any more attacks or disorientation or anything. However, his bloodwork came back and his thyroid is worse, despite being on the medication. So she's doubling his dose, but she did say that there's a good chance that what's causing the thyroid problem is a malignant tumor on the thyroid gland. So he'll be on the new dose of the meds for about two weeks, and then get the blood checked again. If his thyroid hasn't gone down, then I get to take him to a specialist to confirm the malignancy and start on radiation, which will be beaucoup expensive, but has a very good chance of success. She says apart from his thyroid he's in remarkably good health for his age, which will help. Still, I'm *really* hoping the increased meds will work.

Anyway, I get to take him home now, and since I'm home sick with a cold, he's going to get lots of love and cuddling this afternoon :)

Amen to that. Love his little heart, I will be praying the medication does the trick.
