I didn't see what happened but noticed he was having trouble sitting later and was favouring one of his hind legs. I took him to a 24hour clinic later that night because he got worse and couldn't put weight on both of his hind legs at all. The vet there referred me to the emergency clinic where I was told Rolo slipped a disc and the surgery would cost between 5000-6000 dollars. I saw the neurologist there the next morning to see what options I had because I can't afford the surgery.
Tumour markers are substances â usually proteins â in the blood that may indicate the presence of thyroid cancer. Tumour marker tests are used to check a personâs response to cancer treatment, but they can also be used to diagnose thyroid cancer.
If a person with thyroid cancer has thyroglobulin antibodies, they may interfere with tests for thyroglobulin levels. This may mean that the thyroglobulin test cannot be used as a tumor marker or to monitor the individual's thyroid cancer.
