I am not ready to read the posts but this is my greatest fear. As beardies can't speak up- squeal (and you could hear it from another room) like hearing a dog bark and recognize your dog- this is so concerning to me!If you feel uncomfortable or on edge bolt outta there and find a new vet. If she is handling him rough right in front of you imagine what she would do if you aren't in the room.
Im going to post a link if you want to read it, but be warned its a sad ending, he took his beardie in to have the femoral pores cleaned. You mentioned seeing one is what reminded me. His dragon passed a few days after. He posted pics of what they did to that poor beardie.

My suggestion is if you have a bad feeling dont take him back. Veterinarians are a business and unfortunately their prime goal is to make money, I feel like a lot of the time our pets well being takes tbe back burner.
I hope i don't offend Drache613 but i have had absolutel horrible experiences with vets with my beadies and my ferrets as well. I know not all vets are bad but not all vets are good either.
Thank you. It’s difficult not knowing what is going on with him and then when I took him in today she kind of treated me like I was overreacting and that he’s fine. She didn’t think the red in his stood was blood, she said it would be insect parts. But he has had all of these symptoms before (smelly, watery poops with red/pink urinate) and it was a parasite. I tried to explain that and she didn’t really take to it.If you feel uncomfortable or on edge bolt outta there and find a new vet. If she is handling him rough right in front of you imagine what she would do if you aren't in the room.

Thanks. I’d love to know the best way to test if he needs an antibiotic. I think I’m learning towards doing the dewormer (to get rid of the pinworm are rule it out) and then a blood sample if things don’t get better.I'll flag Tracie again, she is going to be the best help on the meds.
@Drache613
Not at all, after the surgery is actually when it stopped.It kindda reads like the blood is an expected side effect of her surgery. If so you may be worrying yourself for nothing. Hopefully they get back to you with the new results soon.
