Oh my, you've had quite a morning! I hate it when I have to do something that my cats don't appreciate, but as we all know, "cat logic" is based on living in the moment, and not always what is best in the long run. Take a deep breath and be careful out there.

LOL he may know I'm trying to help him, but he still won't forgive me for putting him in the carrier and taking out of the house! And Kerry said "little Smoky" I had to laugh, he's 17.5 pounds!! Relatively speaking, mammal-wise, that's small:)
This morning was nuts - I found the blood, had to call work to tell them I had to do the vet thing (and miss the meeting), but I'd already had an appointment to get my stitches out and cast on (I had carpal tunnel surgery last week) and then I had to wrangle the boys and drive CAREFULLY to the vet and then rush to the hospital for my stuff and then back to the vet to go over the estimate (ouch) and I visited the boys for a few minutes and Smoky was very happy to see me, although he did NOT come out from under the chair - Bandit was just scared, still in the carrier - I have a very soft pad in there, so it's quite comfy.
I have a great deal of confidence in my vet, this is just scary and I feel so bad for Smoky - he hates being out of the house and he's in pain and it could still be three or four different things going on....
but last night he got a lovely gentle belly rub and was purring so loud my husband could hear him across the room - about 20' that's why his working name was Diesel:)
I will definitely keep y'all posted!! Thanks for the support and vibes!

    everything you can to help him, I'm sure he knows that. I'm
