Harley Health Update

My hubby is off today and when he came home from doing errands he took this picture of Harley. My hubby emptied our laundry bag and Harley jumped in. Too cute!

We aren't totally out of the woods yet, but I have good news!!! I spoke to Harley's doctor and he told me that all of Harley's blood work came back normal!!! His sugar, kidney, liver blood levels are all normal. Thank you God! Now, for his thyroid tests. He did two different tests on him. One test showed that his level was normal. Another test showed that his level was slightly above normal. So, he may be in early hyperthyroidism. There is nothing to treat this early stage, we just have to watch him and his blood levels. He may not ever go into full hyperthyroidism. It just may be a normal level for him. So that would be a great thing!!!

The doctor recommended I still go ahead and have him give Harley an ultrasound of his body. He would do his whole chest cavity, digestive system, and urinary system. Just a full scan which would show some stuff that the blood work cannot show such as: heart disease, digestive problems, certain cancers, and any pancreatic problems. I am going to go ahead and have it done just to make sure he is OK. He is really concerned about his weight loss. He said that it really can just be a sign of older age, but he wants to rule everything out. He said that his heart is strong enough for the heavy sedation and they are doing to shave him when he is under as well. His appointment is on Friday, Dec 5th. I will drop him off before work and he said I can pick him up at 5pm so I will leave work early so I can get him. I'm glad I did it on a Friday so that I could be home with him on Saturday & Sunday because when he has heavy sedation like that, he gets really loopy. I want to keep a watch on him. Here is hoping that it will all be normal. I hope to God it is just him being older. My heart can handle that.

Thank you all for your love, prayers, support, concern, and friendship you have shown to me. You really have no idea how much it means to me. I am very humbled and thankful to each of you. God bless you all. ♥ I can't wait to get home to give him a big kiss!
