So it’s been a minute since I posted- I hope someone will still read this. So My beardies leg swelling has gone down and he’s walking better these past two weeks. Abdominal bloating is down. And overall he seems better, but he has his off days too)
Still having toe twitching every once and awhile as well
Weird new symptoms however….
A couple times he got VERY stiff in his back legs and tail, so much so that his feet will curl towards his belly.
Then other days he is very watery feeling and floppy and limp. But then I put him on the ground and he will run around and is fine.
His general mood has been slightly down lately. Maybe not lethargic but definitely not his normal active self. He hardly moves most of the day and really perks up when I come home from work and interact with him.
It’s very bizarre.
Since the onset of these two new symptoms, I’m starting to go back to the organ issues I was so concerned about.
Since his leg swelling went down I put him back in his 75 gallon tank. (He’s been back in it two days so far) I made new improvements. I added a 48” T5 10.0 reptisun tube that runs the whole back length of the tank. I have some dark areas and shade where he can hide if he needs to. Is this excessive UVB or would it help him get better?
In my research I have come across Fatty Liver Disease.
Is this a possibility, given his bloodwork that I posted earlier?
I’m so confused and at a loss. I am hesitant to take him to another vet. My experiences with them have been a nightmare so far.
Any thoughts?
