[Gpdd] Health..fatty cyst

[tmwood1 at nycap.rr.com]

When my guinea pig was one, he had a fatty cyst.  It kept growing and eventually 
began to bother him.  I have a vet that has treated guinea pigs for over 20 
years so he was very experienced.  He was able to remove the cyst without any 
problems. 
 
Although when a needle biopsy was done prior to removing the cyst it showed no 
cancer, once biopsied after it was removed, it tested cancerous in the middle of 
the cyst.  So glad we had it removed. 
 
My guinea pig has more cysts, but none of them got large enough to bother him so 
we aren't removing them just yet.  Just keeping an eye on them.  
 
Good luck!
