Twitch had a medium sized mammary tumor removed with a current PT that is being treated with bromocriptine. I didn't notice any regression at all after surgery. She is still doing great a month after surgery, though lately I have noticed her crossing her paws more (I do believe it has nothing to do with her surgery a month ago and could be her just regressing in general, like she would have whether she had the surgery or not). I asked my vet about anesthetic accelerating the growth of PT's and she said she doesn't know. She said she would think if anything it wouldn't effect the growth of the tumor itself, but that it could possibly exacerbate the symptoms of the tumor because of the brain swelling.
