[QUOTE="Starlily, post: 2041834, member: 116054"] [USER=40059]@AHBD[/USER] Hello! I somehow missed your message from the other day. I do not have the x-ray. It wasn’t offered to me (is that normal?). I could request it and post it here later if successful - I’ll call when they open. It definitely is a weighty decision. At this point it would be wonderful if she’d reabsorb them - though the vet said she’s only ever seen that happen once after the 5 week mark. Again, we won’t hesitate to proceed but definitely wanted second opinion(s) from experienced keepers before we pull the trigger on this. There is undeniable risk and in my opinion the better route is always going to be nature running its course - unless the vet is right and reabsorption will not occur to which point surgery it is. We’re at 6 weeks today since we took her in the first time after she’d been presenting with diarrhea for 2 weeks - and then confirmation of no change to follicle development last week (after 5 weeks). My guess is we’re at 8-9 weeks at this point. The question is really how long is too long and is the vet right about reabsorption being near to impossible from here on out. Thank you [/QUOTE]
