Hello! It's definitely been a while since I last posted. Here's what's happened in the past month... Fancy Pants was given the ponazuril (stool hasn't been retested yet), she's continued on the allopurinol and all her supplements. I just finished a bottle of colloidal silver, I'm going to...

So for the past few months, my beardie has had a lot of health issues (parasites, gout, adenovirus, not growing). She's on medication/supplements for everything and we've seen the vet, had blood tests, etc. Two different vets are not able to tell me why I never see her lungs expanding. She...

Thank you so much for this info. My beardies are 7 months old. One is healthy (270 grams) and the other is 60 grams. She has articular gout and adenovirus. I'm getting so much conflicting info between websites and my vet. The vet says to not limit her insects but I thought I should. She...

Yes, I hope she pulls through this. My little Fancy Pants is a fighter. My other dragon is growing like weed! He's the same age and probably close to 300 grams right now! Big boy for sure! We named him Biggie Smalls.

Thanks for the advice. She's 7 months and only 60 grams. She has parasites, gout, and adenovirus. She's currently on medication and a million supplements for all this. I'm getting the medicine and carnivore critical care in just fine, just need to start focusing more on nutrition and...

Hi! I'm currently syringe-feeding my sick little beardie. Does anyone have any slurry recipes to share? Or do I just smash up whatever bugs I think with some baby food? I'll incorporate greens in there too of course. Thanks for your help!

Hi everyone, my little Fancy Pants is doing the same, at least she's not worse. I'm still getting carnivore critical care and meds in her just fine. Here's everything I've been giving her daily: Started 4/27 Calcium Glubionate VS Vetri DMG liquid (immune support) Tramadol (pain reliever)...

Okay, here are the blood test results. Vet's office says they ordered the ponazuril, but I don't know how long that will take to arrive. I keep looking at my beardie as I type this. I don't know what to do. I have hope (I'm a optimistic person) that she'll get better, but she currently isn't...

Just got home from work. Her vent is protruding a little more. Is this the start of a prolapse? What do I do? I think she strained while pooping last time. I'm about to give her a bath.

Well . . I'm still waiting for the file to be emailed to me. . . don't know what the heck is taking so long. When I spoke with the doctor on the phone Tuesday, he said he would email it . . and I've emailed twice reminding them. I think I'm starting to become the annoying client. Anyway...

Thank you for the positive energy, EllenD! The vet said he doesn't have a medication for the coccidia that wont further damage the kidneys. I mentioned Toltrazuril and he said it's hard to get . . . but he will try to order it . . . Does anyone know how I can get a hold of this medication...

Adenovirus = yes. ? I just got a voice message from the vet. She tested positive for adenovirus. He said it's not necessarily a death sentence, but we're definitely battling an uphill battle. So when I call him back in a little bit, I'll request the Totrazuril and continue giving her the...

Thanks. I hope she gets better too. I just want my little Fancy Pants to be happy. It breaks my heart seeing her lie there with her eyes half open all day. I have read that allopurinol works well and takes a while to see results. I know Tracey is very knowledgeable (I have read past...

At first, she was only about 5 inches away from the T5. As her mobility declined, I took out the tallest items. Currently, she is sitting 14 inches away from the UVB and basking bulbs. I will mount the T5 inside (with zip ties I guess). She hasn't really improved too much. She's dragging...

UPDATE AFTER FECAL EXAM: She has a large load of coccidia parasites / flaggela protazoa. I'm pretty sure she's had it since I brought her home from Petsmart. So that means she's had them for at least 4 months, I don't know how bad the damage is. The doctor is prescribing an antibiotic, which...

Hi Tracie, The allopurinol (100 mg tab) is formulated to 20mg/ml; 1 tab in 5ml diluent I'm giving 0.06 ml every 24 hours. Uric acid levels will be rechecked in 14-30 days. The calcium gluconate (0.06 ml) is also administered every 24 hours. Yes, the T5 (with reflector - that's a reflector...
