It's day two of the meds and shes quite a bit more active, eating and drinking food, and her skin looks a lot better today.
She said she would like for her to stay in a cage alone while shes healing up. I didn't ask why because it just made sense to me. I'll call tomorrow to get clarification on this. I swear it's like I get a suggestion/instruction to do something, and I think I'm doing the right thing, and then turns out its making everything worse. =( I thought I was helping her by separating her and letting her get some peace and rest until she feels better. Plus the cage is cleaner when she isn't living with 5 other siblings, so I thought that may help her RI. She doesn't seem to be exhibiting any stress behaviors, you can just look at her and tell she doesn't feel well.
I did mention that she'd already been in a cage with her siblings and I didn't see any way to avoid the others getting sick. She said they may not flare up, but putting her in her own cage was just to be safe.
And nope, she did have some prophyrin of course but her skin was dull, flaky and had the orangeish layer. I cleaned her up and it hasn't returned. The vet told me that was a sign of an illness or stress?
I have no clue what to do, here. My vet isn't available on weekends so I can't call her for any advice. I just don't want to encourage a flare up of symptoms in her or ignite them in the others. =(
