Hi everyone,
My 5 years old sow Fluffy has got two very large ovarian cysts on each side. She suffered with them a couple of years ago and received hormone treatment as recommend by Chrissie's (GG) vet Jennie. It worked very well back then and got rid of them.
They have now come back and I have managed to find a vet in London (I recently moved there) to carry out the same treatment under Jennie's instruction.
This time thought it appears to have made no difference. So I am wondering what to do next.
Jennie says that they could be drained but my local vet has admitted only having done this once before and won't do it without GA.
Aside from that she is very healthy but just getting a little old and the cysts don't seem to affect her quality of life at all.
So I am wondering weather I should just let her be rather than keeping on putting her through the stress of the vets etc... can anyone advise please.
Thanks
Laure
