So on Friday, my beardie, Lizard (yes, that's his name), was a little lethargic and didn't eat all his food. On Saturday, he stopped eating and was really lethargic and I noticed his beard area looked dark and swollen. I took him to the vet on Saturday evening. They said they think it is mouth rot and saw one small suspect spot in the back of the mouth. They gave him an antibiotic injection. I have to give him antibiotic injections every three days for total of 7 injections. So he gets his next one tomorrow. He has shown no improvement since the first antibiotic injection. I spoke to another reptile vet at the same hospital on Sunday, and he said it can take up to 3 injections before improvement occurs. We also have a fecal on him that should come back tomorrow as well.
I have been crying over and over. I love this little guy so much. He is just over a year old. I cannot even imagine loosing him.
Do any of you have any advice? What can I do for him?
Please, I can't loose my baby. Could this be anything else?
