My guinea pig has 2 lumps behind her left leg, squigy and somedays bigger then smaller.
Took her to vet, who also felt lumps in her lower belly that were harder.
No samples taken but has told me its "Leukaemia"
She is eating fine and still popcorning with her sister, showing no signs of pain.
Anyone got any advice?
 
she is the "small furries" expert at my local vets.
Was going to take samples from lump behind leg to see if it was a sebaceous cyst and then said it was the wrong "texture" so didn't bother.
I was hoping for a lipoma but she said it was "too firm"
 
I would definitely get a 2nd opinion. I'm confused how the vet came to that conclusion without a single test.
