I've never heard of that before. Snickers has a lipoma that is the size of a grapefruit on one of her hind legs. The vets are reluctant to remove it because it appears to have grown between the muscles and they fear she could become lame if they operate. So far, it has not impaired her in any way so we are on a watch and wait. If laser surgery is an option, maybe it would be safer to remove it.

I am responding with my daughter's comment regarding her recent laser surgery for a tear in her retina.

"I feel like I've been poked in the eye with 400 popsicle sticks."

She seems to have recovered well.
