[QUOTE="SHBailey, post: 1829163, member: 89387"] You and me both. One hurtful comment from another person can ruin my whole day and send me into depression, although I can also go there for no apparent reason. Interestingly, if they apologize later, it goes a long way toward making me feel better. But maybe that's one of the reasons why I'm often more comfortable with animals than with people. It definitely does not sound like Broly has MBD -- you're giving him all the right UV light and vitamins. There can be other reasons for things like that. A while back, I was noticing that Puff was doing little twitches, mostly along his sides but also around his head, shoulders, and tail too, and usually when he was excited about something (getting picked up, fed, or whatever). My husband took a video of it and emailed it to the vet, and she thought it looked like things moving through his digestive tract, but I wasn't sure if that explained all of it. Of course, it was an intermittent thing and he wouldn't do it on cue in her office so she could see it in person. I worried about the adenovirus possibly doing some sort of nerve damage, and we talked about other possibilities -- deficiencies of other vitamins besides calcium (B12, if I remember correctly), sepsis, and even problems with sugar metabolism -- yes, bearded dragons do have pancreas, she reminded me. Sheesh -- several more things to worry about! :( Anyway, we never did figure out what it was, and it has since subsided -- I don't see it much anymore lately. It doesn't hurt to have it checked though, so hopefully Broly will be okay. It sounds like it may have been just a one-off like you say. I think they probably can get muscles spasms like we do -- I don't see why not. Sometimes I get them when I'm half asleep, and sometimes they're painful -- like the leg cramps that make you have to hop out of bed and jump up and down on the floor trying to make them go away. My doctor told me it was normal if it only happens once in a while, especially the minor ones when you're falling asleep. I suppose that could be the case for bearded dragons and other reptiles too. :? [/QUOTE]
