I have a baby bearded dragon Gizmo I just took him to the vet and they gave him Panacur last week now he is walking funny almost like MBD. I KNOW YOU WILL ASK TEMPs. He has a MVB a halogen light and a reptisun 10.0 the Temps on hot side basking are 105-115 cool side 85. He gets his food dusted daily with calcium with d3. He eats collard green, mustard greens, dubai roaches, Phoenix worms, crickets, Rep cal Juvie food, baby beardies bites, omnivore freeze dried veggie mix and repti boost wheen needed. He is walking on his wrists and his back legs are twitchy. I will take him to the vet as soon as they open. I have a video just don't know how to post it. Oh and his substrate is ceramic tile.
Has he eaten anything that is larger than normal? With babies it's important to give them only small bits of food and small bugs or they may have trouble digesting. The digestion trouble could lead to impaction which can put pressure on the spine causing some of the issues you're describing. You can upload video to a hosting site like vimeo or youtube and then post the link here. I'll be glad to take a look.
No he eats dubai roaches that are smaller than the space between his eyes. However I took him to the vet yesterday and she said he had a lot of parasites even after the medicine and it could be that throwing off his electrolytes or he could be having a reaction to the medicine So she didn't want to give him more. She also said it could be a spinal infection but I would have to do a CT scan and that would be at least $800.00. So I asked if we could try electrolytes first and see if that's it and he is doing much better today. Almost back to normal. So I believe it's the parasites overload.
I'm glad he is acting normally again. Did the vet mention which parasites are causing the problem? Panacur is a relatively mild (but effective) medication so side effects are rare from what I've seen. It's not the best option for every type of parasite though. Electrolytes and extra hydration in general is a good idea so I'd definitely keep that up.
Those can be tricky to get rid of. You'll probably need to provide some meds and then take another look under the microscope. They're pretty easy to see and get an idea if the count is going down or not. An anti protozoal med such as metronidazole or ronidazole may be needed but that's up to the vet to determine. It may take several rounds of meds and fecal tests to get them in hand. Keep in mind they can only be seen in fresh samples typically so a sample "donated" at the vet's office or provided in close time to a vet visit is usually needed.
