How To Treat My Sister's Large Mass On Spleen, Anemia And Fluid In Lungs?

thank you. my sister's corgi, almost 10, was diagnosed with a large mass on her spleen (no diagnosis of cancerous), severe anemia, fluid in lungs and she has lost 6 pounds rapidly. Despite these things she doesn't appear to have pain, but just a little moppy. Several tests were done, but not an ultra sound.

Hi,
Thanks for asking.
Looking at the clinical history and investigations, I strongly suspect a hemolytic anemia.
Looks extravascular hemolytic anemia.
However, no details are present to diagnose the condition. If you can provide Me with laboratory details and further clinical details, I will try to help you more.
Any further queries, happy to help again.
