I've been noticing that my bearded dragon has been acting really weird. It is like she can't see me anymore or can't see very well. Additionally, today she shocked me as she was trying to eat worms and reached for them with her tongue, straining, but yet was still about an inch off of their location. She only could get them when I helped her and after a while she gave up. Overall she hasn't been eating lately and had been lethargic. Her eyes have been a bit droopy compared to how they normally are.
Just to disclose full details, she did lay 45 eggs in the past month. She has a T-Rex MVB, which is situated 8 inches away from her basking spot and the temperature of the spot is 105 degrees. Also, she has been to the vet 3 times in the past 6 weeks to deal with her eggs and he also gave her 3 worming shots 2 weeks apart. Her final one was last Friday. He did not notice anything wrong with her in so far as all these things are concerned, but I didn't really notice the whole not seeing me thing then.
I thought it might be PKC related to the T-Rex MVB lights but I don't want to get paranoid and self-diagnose because of all the posts I saw on here. Also, I didn't ask the vet to check her eyes because I didn't realize there might be an issue. However, would he had noticed PKC if it was there? What are the main symptoms?
I cannot recall when my T-rex bulb was purchased but it was likely about 7 months ago.
I don't know what is wrong with her or if there is something wrong. Please advise.
Oh yea - and I found a stink bug in her bowl today...what are the symptoms of having ingest a stink bug?
