Hi there. Thanks for your response.

I just took my cat Sola in to see a specialist this morning and he had an ultrasound of his intestines. The vet saw a significant thickening of the intestines as well as several lymph nodes and so she just called me to okay an endoscope biopsy. Apparently it's less invasive as the full-thickness biopsy and since he went under a mild anesthetic for the ultrasound she said she can do it right now, so I said go ahead.

The vet mentioned leukeran and prednisone as a possible treatment if it is lymphoma. Yu said your cat Timothy does well on monthly injections of depo-medrol? Does he also take leukeran or prednisone?
