It's Friday!
Well, week 2 of internal medicine is drawing to a close. Earlier this week I had a real cute mixed breed dog who came in for bleeding from one side of his nose. Long story short, we diagnosed him with multiple myeloma, a cancer of the cells that produce antibodies in ours and animals bodies. While he was showing clinical signs he was not real sick. We transferred him to the oncology department and he is undergoing treatment. With treatment, dogs with multiple myeloma can live for two years so hopefully he will have a little while to live yet. Yesterday I had no transfers and today I have no appointments so I'm trying to get some studying for boards done, just a little over a week and a half 'til the big day!
