Help! No idea what's wrong!

[Kayladrowne]

My baby is about 4 months old now
Recently we had to bring her in because she hurt her leg, she apperantly pulled a muscle. The vet said to give her a few weeks and she should be better. It's been two weeks and she seems worse. Very tired looking, hiding a lot, she's barely been eating and she stopped shedding in the middle of a shed.
We've been trying everything and don't know what could be wrong. We are taking a fecal sample on Saturday but if anyone could give me some insight into what could be going on I'd really appreciate it. Please!

Hello,

Can you review your tank setup such as your type/brand of UVB light & supplementation schedule?
Did the vet give you any medication to give to her?
Some pictures would be helpful, just so we can see her leg.
A fecal exam is a good idea, so I am glad you are doing that on saturday. If she isn't eating then
you could get some chicken or turkey baby food mixed with sweet potato or squash baby food to
help her out right now.
Be sure her basking spot has been lowered so she doesn't hurt herself further.
Let us know how she is doing.

Sorry
She's in a 60 gallon her substrate is repti carpet and her basking is 98 to 100 and her cool side 85 I don't know what her uvb is my boyfriend bought it he said it was a good one but I know the basking one is a 150 watt ( we need it because her tank is so tall)
She gets calcium 5 times a week and multi vitamin 2 times
We just changed her calcium because we thought she may be getting too much d3 but we weren't sure the previous bulb she had was a mercury vapor one so we changed that out too

Hello,

Your supplementation sounds fine to me. Which UVB light did you change to now & how close is it to her?
How is she doing now, has she been eating & basking since this happened?
You can post some pictures of your new light also.
If she has a mercury vapor bulb, most times you wont need D3, but just regular calcium. Or the T5 high output bulbs, they are strong also.

Let us know how she is doing.
