    Matthew's testicles have bluish tint!

    Yeah - something was definately bleeding but apparently has stopped. We will be getting a neuter & vet will be able to see what exactly is going on - I hope! Bleeding under the skin appears as bruising I believe.

    Matthew's testicles have bluish tint!

    Actually there is a test for that. Of course rats have to be sedated before blood can be drawn. I am taking a couple of days to process all that he told me. He could not perform very much today anyway, as Saturdays are very busy I I was a " work in " appointment. My mattie has such a sweet...

    Matthew's testicles have bluish tint!

    RESULTS: basically in a nut shell, it would be a neuter & a removal of any growth seen, IF it can be removed w/o the chance of him dying on the table. For example, if connected to the colon, dr says too risky. So here we sit. Simple neuter is $190, but rarely is it simple w/ my boys. The...

    Tomorrow is my "big day" :/

    A few years ago I had that monitor thingy hooked up to me. When it was all done & the cardiologist checked the readings - he never found anything. He told me I just had an "irregular" heartbeat & that many people have this.... some can feel it & some can't. But said it was not a bad thing. Since...

    Matthew's testicles have bluish tint!

    absolutely nothing ...the "high dollar" vet said to keep him on the vit k for a week or so & see if the "blue" goes away any, which it has faded somewhat. They summed up that it is a tumor or hematoma that is / was bleeding. But lean much more to the tumor. Then they wanted to run more tests...

    Matthew's testicles have bluish tint!

    Mattie has been "not himself" since his brother Luke passed away on June 9th. He is definately better now, but for a few days he would not eat much & appeared depressed. I told him that we both have to get over it. Our Lukie is gone but not forgotten. He had never been alone or w/o Luke his...
