Has anyone ever had a dragon have muscle spasms around the belly or rib area? My male 2 year old dragon has been having them since Sunday. He woke up like that. Blood work was taken (waiting on results) as well as an x ray (radiologist will read it tomorrow) but the vet didn’t see anything alarming in the x ray results. No tumors or fluid build up. I have stumped 3 vets so far! When he has the spasms It causes him to barely be able to walk, yet minutes later he can walk normal. He also spasms when I touch him, but not when he is in the tub. He popped friday, sunday and today with no issues. Im at a loss here. Ive already spent 800.00 and seem to be no closer to any answers. I cant even google as no one seems to have had this happen before. I have a video if needed of the spasms I can email. He also does not have mbd and these are not tremors from low calcium. Im so confused and so worried! I have ONE more vet who only specializes in exotics if his blood comes back normal. We also did a fecal and that was Negative. He is currently on a dewormer just in case, an antibiotic, and an anti inflammatory/pain reliever. He also had a calcium shot today. Im honestly hoping something shows in his bloodwork just so I can have an idea and a chance to possibly fix this! If everything is normal, im back to 0.
