okay, so some of you know that Phoenix was diagnosed with both coccidia and pin worms, i'm STILL waiting on the doctor to call me back with meds/dosages for him... anyways, i read coccida could cause him to be somewhat tender bellied? is that right?
reason i ask is i went to pick him up like i always do, put him in my pocket but he didnt wnat to stay there this time and he presumed to climb up me , no big deal i put my hand behind him and let him climb to my shoulder, on the way up me he lost grip, i caught him and he started wiggling so i held him a little tighter.... his poor belly is bloated and i was just wondering if i could of bothered his belly? when he first came out he had his happy face, once i grabbed him he looked like he wanted to eat me,lol. beard was black, and he just seems uncomfortable. Cant wait to get the meds/dosages for him. hes still eating well for me, pooing a little less frequently but it seems okay when he does poo... i think he's been doing it every 2 days tops....
if what i read was correct, is there anything i can do to help relieve the pain?? he gets 2 warm baths a day now, I'm not sure if i'm helping to ease the pain or not, i just know heat helps me with pain... any ideas?
