RobinM Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 (edited) I found this on Beau this morning. He does have immune dificiency (IBD) and is on low dose of pred and imuran. It's very raised and contained in this one area.

ZoomDoggy Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 Looks like a sebaceous cyst to me, but a vet should be able to tell you for certain. If it is a sebaceous cyst, it's nothing to worry about. Quote ~Aimee, with Flower, Alan, Queenie, & Spodee Odee! And forever in my heart: Tipper, Sissy, Chancy, Marla, Dazzle, Alimony, and Boo.

RobinM Posted January 5, 2010 Author Share Posted January 5, 2010 (edited) forgive me for the mis-type of the letter I ment IBD!!!!!!!!!!! you are so forgiven!! There are some people, including me, who do not know, unless of course they have to go through it. That is how I learned about it. I wish it were IBS!

Guest kydie Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 I understand your fear, I really do, I was a mess for days until the biospy came back on them he had two removed, one was MST on his neck, and IBD makes the healing of the suture lines slow, please keep us posted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest SueG201 Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 looks like a histeocytoma to me, they usually go away on their own, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest FastDogsOwnMe Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 Charlotte has one. My vet said she would not worry about it at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Energy11 Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 Goldie has a few. Vet said they were nothing to worry about, but in Beau's case, getting it checked out couldn't hurt. Good Luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it is a sebaceous cyst, it's nothing to worry about. This is my thought as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JillT Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 Looks exactly like what one of my hounds had--it was a histiocytoma. We had it removed, but it turned out to be non-malignant and probably would have gone away on its own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest SillyIzzysMom Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 Millie had one behind an ear--when I felt it under my fingers I thought it was a tick (I had to treat them for ticks this fall) so I tried to grab it with tweezers and pull.. .Millie was KNOT happy! It was attached ! (bad mommy!!) It's gone now, whatever it was. I hope Beau is fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was attached ! (bad mommy!!) It's gone now, whatever it was. I hope Beau is fine Just wanted to let you know you're not the only one who's done that. Shadow had one right on top of his head. It sprouted up overnight and I, too, assumed it was a tick. Tried to go after it with a tick spoon and I couldn't figure out why it wouldn't come up. Ummm, maybe because it was ATTACHED to his head???? : My poor guy didn't let out a peep, but boy was he glad when I quit messing with it!

Guest MyBoys Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 Robin, it looks like a cyst, I just had one checked on our Murphy yesterday, my vet said it was nothing to worry about but knowing how careful you are about your fur kids getting it checked will put your mind to ease. That is what I did and I feel better knowing it is nothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobinM Posted January 5, 2010 Author Share Posted January 5, 2010 where is it? On his side, by his shoulder.

cmc333 Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 Sarge has 2 of these, one on his front upper shoulder. Took him to the vet, she said it was benign, to not bother with it unless Sargie was bothered by it. I've kept an eye on his two and they seem stable. But like you, just to be sure, I had the vet check it. Good luck w/ Beau. Connie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobinM Posted January 6, 2010 Author Share Posted January 6, 2010 Looks like a sebaceous cyst to me, but a vet should be able to tell you for certain. If it is a sebaceous cyst, it's nothing to worry about. Yup. sebaceous cyst. He actually has 2. Vet said sometimes she removes them, but for now, leave it alone. Once he gets these, he will probably get more. Beau's weight is holding well at 64. His racing weight was between 62.5 and 64.5 so that's greyt too. All in all a greyt visit. And he got his nails cut from the only one who can do it. Thanks everyone!
