    When antibiotics fail...

    Well we got our second opinion: After conducting an xray and explaining the other treatments we went through. This vet concluded Discord in fact has phenmonia. The xray showed he had a bit of fluid in his lungs so its a slight case, by his mycoplasma is out of control. And since he's not...

    When antibiotics fail...

    Sadly I do not have a tea pot kettle. I also give him these anitibiotics straight up orally, not mixed with anything, just so I know he's getting it all in and taking it up front without the risk of it not working due to mixture contamination issues. He doesn't like it of course but he's...

    When antibiotics fail...

    I could try that suggestion but I do know for a fact since he's on a baytril/doxy mix, he's not responding to it at all. There's no improvement. I've tried the shower method of doing steam therapy. It helps for a little while, he stops making the noise at least for about 20mins before going...

    When antibiotics fail...

    So Discord and I have been battling his URI since last Fall... He was on a baytril antibiotics for three months but soon as he came off, within a week he relapsed. We have been on a double mix of Baytril/Doxy mix for awhile now, and for two weeks he was doing much better. But now he's...

    Discord - URI

    I do have a nebulizer but I find that to be stressful for my ratties, but i'll try it if he's not improving. He seems to get better day by day, two days after treatment he was doing the noise less and less, yesterday he didn't do it all, today just not long ago he made a bit of noise but its...

    Discord - URI

    It's only been three days but Discord is still making that noise...I hope it starts clearing up by next week... If not ya I may have to do the combo of baytril/doxy. Long as he's eating and drinking though that's a good sign.

    Gah...not again...NOT AGAIN! It feels like every other month I'm dealing with a URI despite my best efforts of keeping everything dust free and clean. So Discord showed signs of a URI about two weeks ago, to which I immideatly treated with Baytril, it appeared to had finally gone away and so I...
