The following dates were recorded for each patient: first cancer related
symptom noticed by patient, first consultation with primary care physician, first oncology consultation, date therapy began (and intent of therapy — curative or palliative).
So the other day, when my husband mentioned the dog might look bloated (one of the first
symptoms we noticed before his diagnosis), I immediately took Yoda to our family vet.
Without symptoms noticed at home, during a routine visit to your veterinarian, a clue that something is going on my be noticed when your veterinarian hears a heart murmur.
Usually the
first symptom you notice will be your dog scratching his ears or shaking his head due to the extreme itchiness that the mites cause.
Refer to this chart to determine which potential skin condition your dog may have based on
the symptoms you notice.
You will also need to give the veterinarian detailed information on
the symptoms you noticed and what led up to the incident.
