Leukemia in piggies

[Cgilchrist]

Hi guys not been on for a while however snowy has had what vet thought was a swollen saliva gland but was asking the super piggie vet his advice. Any how we noticed that he has got porky and swollen in the last 3 days and so we took him back to the vet. he has now said that he has found lots of little lumps today and thinks he has leukemia and has taken test to see which type it is but there is nothing we can do. I am so shocked this has come on so quick i am concerned that this is the more aggresive version. currently he is eating and seems ok but i am not sure what to do. the vet has said he can have baytril and metacalm as the baytril may help slow down. any advice would be appreciated! 8...8...8...

I am sorry I wasn't able to offer more words of comfort on the phone earlier hunny.

But as I said then, I am holding onto the hope that if it was Leukemia, I doubt we would have found out in time, being that he is still well and fit with all those lumps is making me wonder wether it could be soemthing else.

I am really crossing everything for him! So are my herd!

I am in the chatroom if you need me hun *Huggles tightly*

I'm sorry to hear this. As long as he is comfortable and has a good quality of life then you are doing everything you can for him. You have a great vet and am sure he will advise you well.

Hugs for you and lots of love for Snowy. xx
