Please Note - Medical Advice
Please keep in mind that posts on this forum are from members of the public sharing personal opinions. It is not a replacement for qualified medical advice from a veterinarian. Many illnesses share similar symptoms but require different treatments. A medical exam is necessary for an accurate diagnosis, without which appropriate treatment cannot be given.
You should always consult your vet before following any suggestions for medication or treatment you have read about. The wrong treatment could make your rabbit worse or mean your vet is unable to give the correct treatment because of drug interactions. Even non prescription drugs can do harm if given inappropriately.
We are very grateful to members who take time to answer other members questions, but please do be clear in your replies that you are sharing personal experience and not giving instructions on what must be done.
Urgent Medical Advice: If you need, or think you might need, urgent medical advice you should contact a vet. If it is out of working hours phone your vet's normal number and there should be an answer phone message with instructions on what to do.

Normally a vets would so the surgery and then vaccinate 3 days later but I assume the lump appeared after the vaccine date?

I agree with this. If there's not a cast iron reason to do the op within three weeks of vaccination, I certainly wouldn't.

I would not do it, as you say, a full immune response to the vaccine takes 3 weeks to be established. But I know some Vets do do it sooner. Some used to give the single dose Myxo Vaccine at the same time as neutering :shock: Said Vets never got within a mile of any of my Rabbits though !
