Received a bad news today. Toffy- my almost 3 years old abby, have been diagnosed with ovarian cyst :( . She loss her fur on both sides and her nipple developed a crust. This is my first guinea pig with cyst. My vet already schedule her spayed session this Monday. Before that, what can I do to make her comfortable? Is she in pain right now? I already read through guinealynx post surgery but nothing much on preparation before the surgery. Now she is on medicine until this coming Monday.

What medicine is she on right now?

There's really nothing to do until she has the surgery.

Sorry for not updating the thread. The surgery was successful and she is now in recovery period. My vet do an incision on lower body and remove the uterus and ovaries. Right now I am keeping the surgery area clean and dry for speedy recovery. My vet provide 2 days pain medicine and antibiotics (Baytril) for 5 days.
