So about two weeks ago I posted about my rat on here having a lump on her throat and I was told it was most likely SDA (which I agreed with) so I followed the procedure for that with antibiotics and ibuprofen. However, I haven’t noticed any significant lack of appetite or energy, especially from the two not displaying symptoms. The one with the lump seems to be sleeping a bit more and sometimes she won’t accept treats (but that isn’t totally out of character) but she’s still running on her wheel and eating her meals. In addition, when ratphoning, I didn’t hear anything concerning in any of their breathing. I’m thinking it’s not SDA anymore because it’s been over a week and the lump is still there and I think it might even be growing. At this point I think I should find an exotic vet to take a look at her. But does anyone have any ideas about what else this could be? Hoping it’s something that can be drained as a really don’t want to put her under.
