My beardy, male, 1 year old was recently diagnosed with Yellow Fungus Disease. He's been on a treatment of fungitraxx (itraconazol) and he seemed to be doing much better. He started to poop and pee again. He does eat,but only if I put it directly in his mouth.
Yesterday I even got him to eat a couple of meelworms.
This afternoon however, when I got home from getting him some more food I discovered him with slumped over with his nose and mouth a goodways in the sand. His mouth was full with sand and there was a lot of slime.
He seemed pretty lifeless and at one point after having cleared as much of the sand as possible from his mouth I had to reanimate him. The vets here where I live don't know what to do with him and the nearest hospital is a good 45 minutes drive away. To be honest I don't think he'd survive the journey. He keeps on slipping in and out of consciousness, or so it seems.
I don't know what to do, and I don't want him to suffer unnecessarily, please help me. I'd take any advice right now.
