Re: Vet Costs question

The Banfield vet who wanted to test Salome' was charging over $200.00 for office visit, blood work, and thyroid testing (to be sent out).   =^..^= Terri, Siggie the Tomato Vampire, Guinevere, Sammi, Travis, and 5 furangels: RuthieGirl, Samantha, Arielle, Gareth, Alec & Salome' =^..^=   Furkid Photos! http://mysite.verizon.net/vze7sgqa/ My FeLV Site: http://pages.ivillage.com/ruthiegirl1/MyFeLVinformationSite/ My Personal Page: http://www.geocities.com/ruthiegirl1/terrispage.html?1083970447350 ----- Original Message ----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: felvtalk@felineleukemia.org Sent: Saturday, September 24, 2005 4:43 PM Subject: Vet Costs question My friend is panicking in relation to the possible vet costs that could occur with the cat I was asking about - the one who has Hyperthyroid symptoms. I told her to get thyroid liver and kidney function blood work done. She is worried about how much that would cost as she couldn't afford a huge bill.   Does anyone have any idea how much a vet would usually charge for such blood work and maybe thryoid treatment over in USA. She is somewhere in Florida. I am urging her to get to the vet asap as this kittie is in desperate need of blood work. I can't do much from the UK but she is just trying antibiotics without veterinary input at the moment which concerns me.   Michelle, Minstrel, Buddy & Angel Bramble
