A few days ago Spyro launched off of my bed and landed pretty hard. Long story short, I took him to the vet and they think he has a bruised lung. They sent me home with some pain meds and told me to keep an eye on him. Well, he is really starting to worry me. He is walking weird, although a little better today than it was yesterday. I can't tell if he is favoring one limb, or if he is having a hard time balancing. He also very frequently opens his mouth, presumably to breathe. He almost looks like a fish. Also, today he tried to stand against the wall of his viv, but fell and landed almost on his back. He did not seem to be able to right himself. I flipped him over and put him back, and a few minutes later when I peeked at him he was totally on his back. He didn't even appear to be struggling, just laying there. He has pooped yesterday and today, and they have been normal looking (if a bit small. Getting him to eat has been a challenge.) There is no blood in his poo, and I haven't noticed swelling anywhere on his body either, so I'm ruling out internal damage. He seems alert enough, he will follow my hand with his eyes, he even waved at another dragon today. I will attach a video of him gaping and then walking. Any advice would be very appreciated. I'm very very worried about him. http://s838.photobucket.com/user/connkc/media/IMG_2867_zpse48bad7b.mp4.html?sort=3&o=0
