Lump near spay wound? :(

Gosh, you don't have much luck, do you? Not fair!
Nope apparently not.. Ivone said yesterday she really wasn't expecting it to fill again :(

Just gunna see how she goes and talk to William on Tuesday, because I'm so worried about her :( she's only had two doses of baytril so far.. But she doesn't think there's an infection.. So I'm not sure why that's being used anyway tbh :(

A case of 'just in case' as if it got infected it would be harder to treat.
 
By the way, I asked my lovely vet about this and she thought it could be a seroma.
(an accumulation of fluid)

I have known seromas to be absorbed by the body without issue :)

Oh thank you - and thanks for the link above I found that when I was furiously googling too [emoji38] I hope it is that and just goes, it's just waiting :( also I feel so bad because I let them out in the pen and then put them back outside in he hutch with run, they have so much space and they do go nuts :( it had nearly been two weeks after the spay, but it probably was too soon :( feel like I've caused her problems and put her in danger :( x

I'm sorry Penelope's lump issue is still not resolved :(

When Tui had her 3 day post-op check, I asked my vet if it was OK to let her out of the shed, so that she could have the whole accommodation to run around in and she said it was OK. I really can't see that the lump has anything to do with the fact that you let them out, especially as it was almost 2 weeks after her op.

Oh :( It's very difficult to stop them moving about though. Tui was leaping about in the shed and short of tying a rabbit down I'm not sure what you can do.

I've had quite a few biopsies, and I feel quite out of it today to be honest!

My blood pressure is usually 90/60, and just before the procedure it fell to 84/55 :shock:

They decided to give me oxygen beforehand and I said I didn't need it.
Their reply made me laugh - they said "We don't wait until you need it, you get it now!"

Thank you so much for asking :)
