Hello all, it’s been a while. We are working with a vet right now but I’m wanting to get a second opinion and see what other people think.
I’ve heard a lot of pessimism regarding the outcome of a beardie with yellow fungus. A big consensus is that it’s a death sentence.
Gary is currently on Voriconazole and it is making him feel worse. He was acting completely normal before starting it despite the fungus. Even with this, a lot of people say it doesn’t cure it. Doing some research, we found an article of a vet claiming to have fully cured a beardie using terbinafine. I wanted to see if anyone has any insight on this or experience with it.
People are making us feel like it’s time to give up but we aren’t ready to do that to him right now. We are will to travel very far to get him the help he needs if anyone has some advice on research centers that might be able to help him with more testing.
I’ve attached a recent photo of the infection and also a photo of how healthy he appears.
Thank you all.
