Made an Executive Decision

[Piper's mom]

Benny is home after his surgery today. He did well, woke up quickly they said. Poor guy lost all 6 lower teeth! Mass sent off for biopsy but doc thinks its just an epilus. Will take a week to get results. Argghh!

Poor guy! Was it the lower insizors they pulled? Hopefully it was just an epulus and he’ll be good…he’s got enough going with himself already!
Did you do more blood work or is that too soon?

This is good - did they leave his canine teeth (fangs)? Incisors are no big deal to lose, Faith is missing some top ones. Glad he's home, and that your vet thinks it's benign. All fingers and paws crossed here for Benny.

Yeah he's got no teeth between the canines anymore poor guy.
6-8 weeks for liver retest. Then we look for a good internist to scan the GB next time--assuming his number go down of course.
Now I have to worry about drug induced constipation

All these teeth getting pulled - poor Benny! Crossing fingers all heals up well with no tummy upsets involved.

Good news, prayers for a speedy recovery.

Fingers crossed Margi that Benny doesn’t get constipated! That’s the last thing either of you need! How are his bowels working now…is he more regular?
