Thread: Creamsicle has a lump; It isn't cancer!; Update: 12/2; #71

    Creamsicle has a lump; It isn't cancer!; Update: 12/2; #71

    She hopped up on my lap and while petting her I discovered the lump on her back. I think it might be a sebaceous cyst but I can't take any chances. She's got enough against her being a CH girl and deaf and vision impaired. She has an appt. w/Dr. Lee Monday morning. Sigh. Can I get a break, please?

    I do hope it is nothing serious. I will keep you and your C girl in my thoughts.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    Paws crossed it is just one of those minor lumps and bumps kitties (canines and we humans too!) get as we age.

    Oh, Mary, you've just had one thing after another happening recently. I am so sorry to read this now.

    Hoping and praying that this lump is nothing serious.

    Here's hoping it's just a fatty lump, nothing serious. Gracie, our Great Dane, had one on her side for years and years, and with that sleek Great Dane coat, it was completely obvious to even casual observers. I grew used to explaining "it's just a wen," and then explaining what a "wen" is to those who still looked puzzled.

    Hopes it is something simple and harmless. You need a break for sure!

    Try not to worry too much Mary. Hopefully it's just a harmless fatty growth like both Myndi & Sparky have. Prayers for a positive outcome from me and The Fuzzbuttz.

    Hopefully it's just an infected hair follicle or cyst. Thoughts for Creamsicle.

    I found a lump on Maya Linn yesterday. I assume it's a fatty tumor from a vaccination. It bothers her more than it does me.

    Please keep us posted on Creamsicle's prognosis. She'll be in my thoughts and prayers.

    It's hard not to imagine the worst. But, odds are that it's nothing.

    Still, you both are in my thoughts and prayers.

    Please keep us posted.
