    Cyst in eye - bulging after surgery, help!

    I have had him for 5 years. He is now 7years old. I almost burst into tears when the vet told me. I had to take off work today cuz I was too distracted of just the thought that in a few months I will have to consider putting him down. It is definitely going to be hard. They are like my kids...

    Cyst in eye - bulging after surgery, help!

    My beardie got surgery and a biopsy on October 29th. I just received a call from the vets and he has myxosarcoma. It is aggressively growing and could possibly be in his brain. There is no cure. He said they could keep removing it, but it will only be a temporary fix. He said that I have some...

    Cyst in eye - bulging after surgery, help!

    Just got back from the vets a few hours ago. First off, he lost 11grams from his last visit (6-7 weeks ago) he now weighs 340 grams. The UVB definitely gave him a boost of energy. The Vet said to try and force feed him his crickets/supers. I told him I wanted a biopsy and he said he would do it...

    Cyst in eye - bulging after surgery, help!

    I have a custom made tank for my other beardie that I have an mvb in, they are nice. I just bought a reptisun 10.0 and replaced his old uvb light and I took him outside I think he enjoyed it very much. It definitely perked him up a little. Ill be taking him outside this weekend since it will b...

    Cyst in eye - bulging after surgery, help!

    He has a reptisun tube...I think its the 8.0. I'm on my way now to get the reptisun10.0 only thing is that I was thinking about is that the light sits on the mesh/caged lid and it could be blocking some of the uvb light. I am also going to purchase a uvb meter. Ill take him outside today since...

    Cyst in eye - bulging after surgery, help!

    It funny you ask that because I was going to get a new UVB light today after work. My UVB is probably about a yr old now. I probably shoulda replaced it a bit sooner. Temperatures are around high 90's on his warm side and around 80ish on cool side. I have never tried Critical Care. Though I have...

    UVB lights - which to choose??

    Anyone recommend any good UVB lights? I have a mesh/caged lid with a tube sitting on the lid and I don't think my beardie is getting enought exposure to the ubv and I wanted to get something I could mount up on the side of his cage. I was looking at the Arcadia D3+ Reptile Lamp 12% UVB, but I am...

    He has an appt this Saturday. Its not swollen from the surgery...the growth or cyst is coming back. This time it came back a lot faster. Usually he would have about 3 months after surgery till it slowly started to develop. This time it came back within 4 weeks. I'm praying and hope I can get...

    Cyst in eye - bulging after surgery, help!

    Is there any other method of removing it that is better than laser to possibly get rid of it all or I am also wondering if it is cancerous. I hope not :cry:

    Harderian Cyst in eye

    I just got my baby home from the vets. The cyst surrounded his entire eye and even was behind it so they removed his eye. Don't think he was too happy about it cuz I got pooped on on the way home lol :oops: He seems kinda sleepy still. Hopefully he will get use to it soon cuz I see him rubbing...

    Harderian Cyst in eye

    There was cultures done on the tissues the last time he was there and everything was fine. Tonight the vet wanted to get some blood work done so I will get the results tomorrow. If everything looks good then he will proceed with the surgery. He said this time there may be a greater chance of him...
