She's been on DGP for a little while now, "just in case" there's pain.

IF it is a sheath tumor, gradual worsening/atrophy of the leg and amputation. I believe the new vet said, depending on the extent of the tumor's feelers, it might be possible to save the limb.

But again, this is assuming that it is a sheath tumor. There are a couple of other (unlikely) things it could be; there's just no way to be certain without seeing a neurologist.

We have the new report to drop off to our regular vet, Monday. We'll talk to him and go from there.
