Hi everyone, I am new to this forum. Am posting this in hope of getting some advice from fellow birds owner.
2weeks ago, I discovered that my lovebird is unable to use her right toe. She seemed to have lost control of her right toe and it became lame.
I rushed her to the vet the next day, without doing any x-ray or CT scan which the avian vet does not suggest because she is too small and she says that they cannot see anything even from the x-ray. She suspects that she might have an ovarian tumor and gave us anti-inflammation meloxicam.
I was devastated, but slowly accepting this and try to keep her as comfortable as possible, thinking she will still have a few months to go.
Today, I realized that there a protruding lump coming from in between the wings. The lump is red with a slight pinch of yellow. I gave the vet a call and send her the photos. She says it seemed to be the lump/tumor instead of xanthomas.
Tomorrow we will be visiting the vet again.
Is there any cure for this? Will she die from surgery? If we didn't have surgery, she would die too right?
Otherwise, she is still active, eating well, pooping well, playing well, just that her toe are lame and it is rather inconvenient.
Anyone with similar situation? Any advice?
Thank you all for your time. I am devastated.
