RobinM Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 I am not overly concerned. It's about 2 inches long and about1.5 inch wide, NOT on the spine but about 2 inches further down from the spine. When I press on it, she does not react at all. It feels like a tight muscle on a human. I did call the vet and she said it could be a fatty tissue. It's on the same side as the amp and is visual to my eyes. If it gets any bigger or seems to bother her, I will bring her in. Has anyone else had something that sounds like this?

Guest SoulsMom Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 Does it move when you manipulate it? Or does it stay rigid? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicocat Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 Just a wild guess - you said she overdid exercise a bit recently -- maybe she tore a muscle. Haven't really seen one in that area, but Polli is dealing with the change in dynamics because of the amputation. Quote Ann Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tennesseegrey Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 Caesar's had one on his chest for years. It was biopsied and ended up only being a fatty cyst. Sending positive thoughts that it's nothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobinM Posted February 26, 2009 Author Share Posted February 26, 2009 Does it move when you manipulate it? Or does it stay rigid? It doesn't move. It just feels like a tight muscle. Ann- it's not a torn muscle. When she ran it was her back end that suffers. If it changes at all, I will bring her in. Vet doesn't like me to bring her in unless we really have to. It really stresses her out. Hopefully, it's nothing...

Guest ss556 Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 Oh boy! Alan has had a lump on his thigh for years and now has little bumps/lumps here and there. The big one is squishy, moves around the others are small and hard. So far, they haven't been a problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The big one is squishy, moves around the others are small and hard. So far, they haven't been a problem. This one is about 2 inches by 1 inch and about 2 inches from her spine on the amp side. I can press, massage, and she doesn't flinch.

The big one is squishy, moves around the others are small and hard. So far, they haven't been a problem. Buddy has numerous lumps, too...we call him our lumpy old man. His are not attached to anything underneath, so they are most likely just lipomas. It's the ones that seem to be attached that you have to be careful about...

MerlinsMum Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 Robin, only just seeing this. I really hope it's nothing. Glad you're not overly concerned. It could be a number of things. I'd just monitor, and it seems that's what your plan is... Quote Kerry with Lupin in beautiful coastal Maine.

RobinM Posted February 27, 2009 Author Share Posted February 27, 2009 How are YOU today Patti! Very kind of you asking with all you have going on. sigh. It does seem to be always something, doesn't it. I for one can not beleive what we all go through. And there is always someone else who is going though so much worse.... like they say "everything is relative".... So, how is Polli today? For the most part, she is pretty much back to Polli.... BUT I have a feeling that something is just not right. I can't put my finger on it and I am not stressing. But I am aware of it and I just kinda keep an eye on it.
