[QUOTE="Deabrua, post: 2035457, member: 101824"] Their thoughts on brumation among other things are why I heavily question everything they've stated/decided yesterday, but they're unfortunately the go-to reptile vet within a... quite large area here. The substrate is primarily reptisoil. Relatively small amounts of playsand or clay. While it's definitely possible that could contribute, I would just say she's been on this substrate 24/7 since April/May in addition to frequenting her dig box for more than just laying eggs. We already agreed that if we give her Meloxicam, we're cutting it by at least 20% (0.4mg/kg vs 0.5mg/kg). We aren't sure about the SMZ TMP The surgeries would be in response to not reabsorbing... something from the eggs. I forget what the word for it was. Follicle? They said they can't confirm follicular stasis without a second check in after some time. Aside from seeing something on ultrasound, they were also concerned about an orange liquid accompanying her feces/urate as well. I'm also adverse to this unless absolutely necessary. I dont believe I have a copy of the blood work, but I can certainly request one alongside the xrays/anything else they did. I unfortunately had to leave pretty early in the appointment to let me partner take care of the rest, so she may have more information as well. Edit: The wheezing has still not reoccurred since Sunday. Aside from while being handled by vet, no more grey/black bearding either. Concern has shifted to focus on the.. whatever the ultrasound found, and low white blood cell count. Also, I changed her heat bulbs out yesterday on a hunch that neither dragon liked the bulbs I had in this setup. Will see if she basks more now. [/QUOTE]
