Chicagoland Vets!?

[Searska]

Does anyone know a good beardie vet in the Chicagoland/ Northwest suburbs?! Norbert (my beardie) either has a very bad impactation or calcium deficiency, neither of which I can treat on my own. I've tried a liquid supplement, and that worked for a day, but now he's refusing all food and looking worse by the hour. It's not winter shut-down, I know that much. His eyes are sunken in, and his feet twitch when I pick him up.

And is there anything I can do in the meantime?!

go to the store and get some fruit flavored pedialyte. Syringe feed it to him. This will help keep him hydrated. Im sorry but i have no idea about a vet in chicago. Hope this helps!
Also,
what UVB are you using?
How old is it?
Is it tube, coil, or MVB?
Are you using vitamin supplements?

i am not good with locations but if you are near batavia, il there is one not to far from me. Her first name is Christine and she is the only one there who deals with reptiles the number is 847-742-5700 if they are to far perhaps they can recommend someone closer.
