Oh honey, please don't worry about that. There are times when we have to go right away with the hardest-hitting stuff or procedures we can, and don't have the luxury of time for trying other things and seeing how it goes. You are taking wonderful care of him -- as someone else said, now it's up to his little body.Originally Posted by Snake_Lady
What we did for him today was support: he had a tetracycline based antibiotic + Baytril + an anti-inflammatory (Metacam) as well as fluids, and some food. (the day prior, he had a different antibiotic and fluids)
because I know it will come up, the topic of Metacam: I was extremely hesitant because of what I've read. It was our only option. He needs an anti inflammatory to hopefully open up his bronchial tubes so that he can get more O2 flow. If we didn't try everything we could, he would die.
