Patsy now showing signs of Ovarian Cysts - vets appt booked

Update: Rachel (vet) saw Patsy this morning. Rachel couldn't feel one cyst at all now (left side) but the cyst on the right side is "definitly there". Since Patsy hasn't had a change in behaviour, any hair loss and has recently got over a URI (so the risk of anaesthetic goes up), Rachel is quite happy to leave well alone for the time being and suggested that I "observe Patsy" and any changes to take her straight back. Rachel also told me that there is another vet there now with an exotics specialism called Chloe who Patsy has already seen which is good to know. When I saw her for Patsy's URI I thought she knew what she was on about. So if Patsy does need to have a spay and Rachel isn't available, Chloe may well be and she has done lots of spays on piggies.
 
The vets clearly trust you to know what symptoms to watch out for. They must know you are a brilliant piggy slave.
Priscilla didn’t have any fur loss but her behaviour change was very noticeable.
