Prayers for Bino - and you. I pray that they are just lipomas. I started having a little lump about two inches from the center of my spine.first felt it about two months after my last lumbar surgeries. My doctor ordered an MRI back then and they said it was a lipoma. It is much larger now, but the doctor had the MRI of that as well as my spine. I will find out on Friday if it is still just a lipoma. My doctor said that cancer is rarely hard as a rock, like mine is. The MRI person showed it to me on the screen and she would not have done that it she knew it was cancer.

Took him to the vet today. Upon full exam he has three of them..one on each flank and one on his leg of varying sizes. Tried to get a needle biopsy but showed nothing but fatty cells. Going to bring him in Thursday to put him under and remove one of the lumps to send away to pathologist. He has always had extreme reactions to vaccinations which is why I only give him rabies now so first thought was scar tissue from prior vaccination sites. But three lumps in different locations make that theory problematic and they were not there on his last yearly exam. We are thinking right now..lipoma(best case scenario)..Panniculitus not so good..and of course always possibility of cancer. Prayers would be appreciated..it will be a nervous wait until we get a diagnosis.
