Hey guys. My fuscus has HUGE farts and suddenly went from being child-could-hold-her-placid to HUGELY hunger-aggressive. So for kicks, I brought in a stool sample to the vet. A few stats were high, including her tricamonad count, which he said could explain the crazy hunger. They took some blood, I went home with meds. Meanwhile instead of once a month she's eating once a week and still acts starved, but hey if she wants it I'm glad to feed her more (she's getting one large rat each meal).



She went through one course of treatment and her system is back to normal, no more farting, and the hunger went down a bit, but she's still eating ravenously once a week and the tricamonads are still 3x what the doc says they 'should be'. I think he's using burm stats as his normal. Her aggression is starting to rise again and we're starting another round of meds.



All that backstory, MY QUESTION: Has anyone dealt with these tricamonads?
