Posted by: millipede at Fri Jul 23 22:13:51 2010 [ Report Abuse ] [ Email Message ] [ Show All Posts by millipede ] Today has been a traumatic day for me. I took my 9 year old iguana in for a tail infection. She's lost some weight in her legs but shes still very active. Her appetite isn't the same but she eats a little. She has dry gangrene that has crept up to the start of her tail, and has infected her bone in the region near her legs, as shown by xray. My vet doesn't think that amputation will stop the infection and recommends I put her down now. What are some of your opinions on this? I know that calling this a long shot is and understatement, but I want to find someone who can treat this with maggot therapy along with amputation and antibiotics, since she doesn't believe she can extract all the bad tissue, but medical maggots are said to be able to target this much more efficiently than surgical means, not touching viable tissue.
