We got a vet appointment early. We brought her in and got practically the worst news possible.
She had a systemic infection (adenovirus I think is what I heard), along with gout, metabolic bone disease. The vet said she's too young and probably has a 10% chance of surviving after almost $300...
Okay so I called into the vet, and since I have a vet appointment tomorrow, they said they would have a prescription ready for me for the appointment. At least that's some good news.
It might be better giving her to someone that can take of her better than two broke teenagers who don't have a lot of money in the first place? I'm not sure anyone will take a sick beardie, but I hurt seeing her suffer and I'd rather have her be happy with someone else with the right resources...
We had to reschedule our appointment for a week out from our last one.
In the last two days she's been throwing up anything we feed her. That's not good at all! I don't know what I can do if I can't get anything into her. I'm just feeding her black cherry juice and seeing if I can get roaches...
She does not move aside from a few short around her basking log. We're giving her baby food since she doesn't want to eat anything right now and we can force that into her mouth safely. We're trying! All vets are booked way out into January because of Christmas unfortunately, so we still have to...
Alright! I didn't know it was a common issue with the vet. She is just an exotic pet vet, I think she treats ferrets too. There is a reptile vet an hour trip away. It'll be worth it at this point so I've booked an appointment with them. Instead of the much closer one.
I do not have a T5 yet. I...
She hasn't gotten any better :(
Still refuses food most of the time and she has absolutely no movement in any of her joints so she just kind of flops around and it's horrible. She is still pooping, not often but enough to make me not too worried about that.
I'm worried the bump right under...
Okay! I've ordered Phoenix worms and they should be coming tomorrow. Serapeptase? I'll have to look into it. I've been feeding her syringes of black cherry juice, but if that's more effective I will certainly get some.
Ive been trying to get more water into her system. I hope it's working.

We have definitely stopped giving her antibiotics, a few weeks ago. The vet only recommended using them for two weeks and if there was no change, stop using it. Black cherry juice is a check! I've never actually tasted it myself lol.
We are using this specific calcium -...
