When it comes to medicating and sick rats I always try meds first before I euth. I've had numerous URI's that have cleared up very well (one reoccuring due to possible issues with a moldy apartment we lived in). UTI's that cleared up well with abs (quite shocking to say the least when you see blood down there), PT (which is devestating however trying the meds first to bring them back even for a short while is always worth it for me. I find that they tell you when it's time. They refuse food, meds and any sort of liquid. My philosphy, try meds first always, you might clear up what the issue is and have your rat for many more months.
Good luck at the vet.
