Great News!!

It's NOT cancer!!


NOT a mast cell tumor...

We don't know WHAT it is - maybe a poison plant, maybe some auto-immune thingy.  As Fiona said, maybe I got a hold of some 'bad weed' BOL!!!

More convo with Dr. Sarah tomorrow.


Thank you all so much for your good thoughts.  I will update you as soon as I have more info.  

I was actually playful tonight when the Publicist got home tonight.  I'm still taking my Omeprazole and my carafate.

Off to get some more rest.

Thanks again for being my friends...

Love,

-Ruby

    oh woohoo! I'm so relieved! We never want to hear the C word when it comes to any of our dogs, but especially with our rottie friends. We know from personal experience how horrible that is.:(( Hope your publicist can figure out what's wrong with you, poor girl. This week we really know how frustrating mysterious symptoms can be too. Hang in there and breathe a sigh of relief it's not that nasty C word.:)
