[QUOTE="Lilith86, post: 1992513, member: 81145"] Update: Agni is out of surgery and currently recovering well! We will have another update tomorrow as he continues to recover in the animal hospital for a few days. He will be on plenty of pain meds (lizard friendly form of morphine) and will be a sleepy boy for a while. Hopefully we can take him home on Friday (after we take the OTHER lizard also to the vet, for a toe/stuck shed problem. Hopefully after this we will be done with the vet for a while!) The vet said that she got pretty good margins, so there's a good chance this will cure the cancer. She said he still has a little stump of a tail, but because the tumor was more on one side than the other, it's a little asymmetrical now (I'm impressed they could keep any tail, so I'm happy). They also ended up having to remove the hemipenes because there was not enough room left to hold them in what was left of the tail-- they would have continued to prolapse and that would have been another surgery. So that's not great, but it's much better than being worried about prolapse all the time! Now, we just wait for him to come home to a nice, clean, super comfy post-op modded tank.... [/QUOTE]
