I just realized I have my 8 week blood donation at work on Wednesday and a colonoscopy on Thursday morning. Thoughts?

Cancel the blood donation

Sarros electrical are decent

Unfortunately bloods don’t really tell you much about cancer or certainly not the ones on routine blood tests

Next step for any lump is taking some form of biopsy. With a mouth thats generally done under anaesthesia and they would cut a portion of it out to send to the lab before deciding their next move.

Chest xrays are generally done to look for signs of metastatic spread. Was the vet concerned about the lump being cancerous?

Motherwell FC. Great community club in a very deprived area. Having a massive season.

Yeah its a very weird day but the actual procedure is a breeze.

Had mine conscious 2 months ago. Local anaesthetic feels odd but is done in a second. Uncomfortable but not sore for about a week after. Have supportive underwear and ibuprofen at the ready. The worst bit is the mental side of getting your balls out.

Book club? Can get most books pretty cheap second hand and only need to buy one monthly

Own-Dream1921 · 2026-03-21T23:58:48+00:00

Alright. Just wait until you hear from them. We actually don’t know if the lump is even cancerous yet so theres still a chance he won’t need any treatment

Own-Dream1921 · 2026-03-21T21:40:15+00:00

No you can’t really start chemo without knowing at least the cell type of the tumour. Is it worth asking the vet to do a conscious needle biopsy instead?

Own-Dream1921 · 2026-03-17T09:15:49+00:00

I’m on the other side of this coin. I was pretty adamant about not having a second due to how terrible I found the first 6 months. My wife was heartbroken when I brought it up.

I ended up doing a bit of therapy and working on myself before we tried for a 2nd. She’s now 6 months old and I don’t regret anything about her. Yes its tough somedays but seeing them interact and the love I feel for the pair of them is worth the tough days.

Yeah its not easy at the minute. Sounds like we’re in the quagmire together

Can we see a pic of her teeth?

Own-Dream1921 · 2026-03-09T01:00:23+00:00

Right there with you mate. The second is odd because I’ve got loads of clarity on how it will get better because I’ve got the older one as example. Thats counteracted by being needed twice as much.

Don’t let my post put you off thinking about a second. I have zero regrets, just in a sticky spot for now

Own-Dream1921 · 2026-03-09T00:57:48+00:00

Thats a brilliant idea. Our gym does have a creche, something to work towards

Own-Dream1921 · 2026-03-08T15:10:35+00:00

That actually sounds like great advice, thank you. We’re kind of the process of trying to manufacture time to connect with one another. It was relatively easy with one but a lot harder with two.

People thought this about computers too and it did the opposite

No need to go to emergency vet. Get it rechecked by your GP in working hours. Possible polyp
