My 6-7 month old female (we think) had her front leg swell up and go limp. We took her to the vet and they xrayed it and there was nothing remarkable on it. She also was lethargic and not eating much at all. The vet gave her an anti inflammatory and that didn’t really help. After 4 days they put her on antibiotics (shots we had to give). After 5 days she perked up and started eating like she was ravenous and using her leg. Swelling was mostly gone. It was in the whole arm not just joints.
We thought she was better. Today the same side back leg is doing it. It’s not swollen it’s just kind of useless.
vet says it’s not MBD. Bone density is great. I asked about gout and she said it didn’t like like gout to her. Anyway we have another appointment Friday. They are going to want to do bloodwork but they aren’t sure they can get enough to use.
Has anyone had this issue or anything like it?
I went through husbandry with my vet. She’san exotic pet vet and vet knowledgeable about reptiles. She said my husbandry was spot on.
I appreciate any help you can give me.
