Hi,

My 16 year old plus Cat Pandora was diagnosed with Lymphoma yesterday.Her vet had discovered a lump in her neck 2 weeks ago.A needle biopsy was done,and after waiting 9 days,the results came back as lymphoma.Thoe we do not know what type.

We have her penciled in for an operation to try remove on Wed's morning.I know nothing about this disease,I have tryed to read up on it but confused myself more.My vet says he cannot feel any other enlarged lymph nodes,not even the opposite one in her throat.I have so many questions,more decision making,hardly any answers,and little time to decide.I dont know if I should even put her through this operation.She also has a heart problem,and has just started FORTEKOR,and we were told that on a 1-10 scale her heart is about a 7.She had an x-ray at the same time as the biopsy by needle,which showed her to have an enlarged heart.

Can you advise me,sugest anything or enlighten me in any way at all.I would be most grateful,thankyou.I probably have missed important things out of my message here,but I am so confused at the moment.The vet told me I would be if I rad too much about it,guess he was right in that sense.

Many Thanks,

Gabby
