Lipoma in a pet rat
My rat Doris has just been diagnosed with Lipoma (she's got a fatty lump on her right handside). She is 2yrs old next month, the vets have said we have just got to keep an eye on it for now, and will operate if/when it impedes her movement.She is still active and healthy, but as rats don't live that long (2/3yrs) I am turning to homeopathy to prolong her life/quality of life. I really don't want to have her operated on if I don't have to, as she had a spay (due to possible infection in her uterus (pyometra), but was nothing found) and a lumpectomy (due to a lump near the base of her tail/female regions!) in November.
As I have already had one success in treating an abscess in one of my rats (Henry) by using Silica then Merc Sol, I have turned to my animal Homeopathy books again, and looked up Lipoma, and they recommend - Baryta Carbonica and Thuja Occidentalis (which I will try) - I was just wondering if there is anything else I could try?
Thank you in advance!
