I’m a vet tech with access to a lot of diagnostic options. My Beardie toothless is about 9 months old. She was doing very well in a 40 gallon but we upgraded to a Dubia 4x2x2 about 4 months ago. Since then she has been ill. First we did a fecal and she had coccidia. So she’s been on medication on and off. She cleared that infection. I cleaned every day with ammonia and threw away all the stuff I couldn’t clean or boil.
She still wouldn’t eat, bask, and was lethargic. We ran a blood panel which I will attach. The values are everywhere but my exotic vet isn’t sure where to go.
She still isn’t eating, defecating, lethargic, not basking and is cold and laying in the same spot. Baths aren’t helping. She’s not shedding and is losing weight. I have force fed her. I’ve done sq fluids. Nothing is changing. I’m willing to send off a fourth fecal but need her to actually defecate. Her eyes are sunken in now and I’m really starting to question her quality of life.
The only thing I haven’t done is X-rays because although I’m a vet tech I have spent over 1000 with no answers and no improvement. I don’t know what else to do.
