Cat tests negative, but I'm skeptical. Should I get a second opinion?

I'm sorry no results were found with Lucy's tests! I'm not sure what symptoms she was showing, but it does happen that certain things are very difficult to detect without further testing such as specialized blood work, ultrasound, and/or MRI. I would discuss with your vet having further tests done if you still feel something is wrong with Lucy, or you can bring her to another vet for a second opinion. I hope this helps!
