Daktari's Health Information
OFA: GOOD
OFA# 3921G38M
Daktari has never been sick until April 2000. His eye ball begin to swell and protrude. Upon a
physical exam by Dr Thompson, we confirmed Daktari also has a tumor on his left testicle.
On two separate occasions, the pressure check of his left eyeball was within normal range. The eyball is NOT hard.
An ultra-sound
test, of the area behind the eyeball socket (done by Dr. Thompson) revealed nothing. In early May blood began leaking from his nose profusley
as well as from the mouth. A couple of weeks later it stopped bleeding altogether. The size of the eyball
and how far it protrudes continues to increase.
The x-rays taken 6.8.00 seem to be inconclusive? It does not appear to be in the bone. We are thinking
it is in the soft tissue. Dr. Thompson is interested in a second opinion on reviewing the x-rays.
Are the x-rays easier to see with a white background? As opposed to the blue background?
Also, I can bring you the actual x-rays, if that would be better.
Your thoughts on the x-rays & treatment plan please? Send to: Kushinda@pobox.com
THANKS!
