Could a pre-existing canine sarcoma (spindle cell in this case) be stimulated by needle injection/biopsy, given that the tumor, which was stable for over three years and the size of a cherry at the time of biopsy, increased fivefold in size within 4 1/2 months post-biopsy, approaching the size of a baseball?

Hobbes, a 15-year-old Rat Terrier with Addison's disease, has been stable on treatment but today has had frequent vomiting and frequent stooling (not diarrhea). He was given his usual Prednisone dose this morning but vomited soon after. He then ate his normal breakfast and is now resting comfortably. Hobbes has also had symptoms thought to be caused by old dog vestibular syndrome vs TIA over the last two weeks and shows some cognitive decline. What should be done for Hobbes, and should he be evaluated at an emergency clinic if he has more vomiting episodes today?
