[QUOTE="Spider8ait1994, post: 2030129, member: 101939"] [USER=8309]@Drache613[/USER] Good news for him. CT results came back and showed there’s no spreading that’s occurred and the tumor is an operable size. The specialist spoke with the surgeons who’d be doing the proceedure and they believe they can remove the entire tumor. The only thing is that due to the location and it’s close proximity to important structures like the windpipe and arteries they won’t be able to get as much of a margin as they’d like to so that does mean there IS a higher risk of it re-occuring in the future but for now they believe that removing the mass is the best option for his immediate health and comfort which is something I agree with so that surgery is booked in for next week (5th September australian time). As for his current condition with everything he’s doing good. Still awake and alert and moving around his enclosure. I tried him on superworms this morning and he did eat 20 of them and didn’t have any trouble of discomfort in chewing and swallowing them. The only thing was he needs help getting them in his mouth because his short range vision isn’t great nowdays but I have taught him a process for that so I’ll grab the worm with the feeding tweezers and tap one of his front feet to indicate which side it’ll come from then I touch the worm to his lips and he knows to snap in that direction to get the worm so with that he’s having a 95% success rate of getting the worm as opposed to like a 10% success rate when he tries without assistance. Not to mention assisting him makes feeding quicker rather than him taking about a half hour to eat a decent amount on his own. As for the specialist vet SASH I’m very pleased with them and the quality of their work. I’m not exaggerating when I way that it’s like a literal human hospital complex only for animal patients with all the layout, services available and proceedures for hygeine and comfort so if you ever come across others from australia looking for a specialist vet for more complex reptile issues I’d definitely reccomend North Ryde SASH.
