…the sound is far less than in the past.
We're now a bit puzzled, about both the CT scan and the Surgery. Both would require anesthesia, and a Lung Surgery is very invasive. Anyone who had experience with this? We're really have in mind the well being of Morgana and her quality of life, we really have…
…a big doubt about this. Other Vets we have consulted are tepid on the solution, and pointed out to long recovery time after a lung surgery...
Thanks a lot
Sergio
…and I have read some success stories. Anyone here tried it?????
(p.s. Kaiserin is doing really well right now, recovered amazing from her lung surgery)

…thank you so much seapee/Orinoco's mom - I don't know why I am so scared of a lung surgery when we got through an amputation but your post gives me so much hope that we can have the surgery and come out ok the other side! They are telling

… any oldies around here, didn't a Lab named Charlie, Mom's name Ellen, have lung surgery to remove a mass?? Seems like they mostly blogged as opposed to posting on forums.
And want to say we are all pulling for your amazing Kaiserin

…more information on monday if this is possible and could maybe do the surgery on wednesday. I would love to hear from anyone who has had any kind of lung surgery or lung tumor removal on their dog - more to know how the recovery process was and how hard it was on the dog.
…strong and obviously all surgery has risks but they predict a good outcome at this point. I would love to hear from anyone who has had any kind of lung surgery or lung tumor removal on their dog. I think i will post in the oncology section too.......and thanks again, your thoughts are appreciated
…consulted her surgeon and she said it is very rare to have primary lung cancer but she also pointed out the facts and life expectancy if undergoing lung surgery + Chemo (which we won't, she is now close to 13 years old and she has already undergone too much, and all that torture would only extend her life a
…without a CAT scan. We had been prepping for CAT scan, as I mentioned, to determine if the lung mass was in fact a tumor or not, and considering lung surgery before the new paw tumor cropped up/ came back. It's such an "immediate threat" and affects his (and our) life, as you probably know with Mojo's

…. I was told about surgery to remove the tumor but it was also ruled out for my situation (we do know of one dog, Lily, who had the met-removal lung surgery and she is going on three years post-diagnosis...amazing!). My pawrents and I decided we did not want more serious medical intervention to get
…take Fentanyl and, as a human, was freaked out when they just added more patches to the ones I already had on me for chronic back pain when I had my lung surgery, it did not stop the pain at all; it never was meant to stop acute pain unless given IV. It's unfortunate that even doctors do not understand
