>>Well, i scheduled a vet visit for Ralphie later this week. I know he is extremely dehydrated (his eyes are sunken) ive been giving him water every few hours along with pedialyte in his syringe foruma (baby food). Im wondering about a few things. I beleive that he has some sever parasites, and how can i treat him, because the meds would make him go downhill even further than he is before going back up, and he is way to far down to go any further. And then I dont want it to be too stressful, he is getting way too much stress already. I also feel that this baby food is not enough. I dont know if he is getting enough nutrients to bust him back uphill. He lays down all day with his eyes clothes, sometimes basking (but with everything layed down, including head and eyes closed). Is there anything that can actually boost his energy a lot? is it even too soon to see any improvment? im stressing out really bad, i dont want my buddy to go through all this and i dont want to risk losing him, so im doing the best i can.Any help would be much apreciated.

Not sure on the history here but did Veronica from Beautifuldragons.com give you some advice? Check out her site, it has lots of good info.

Also, I'd definitely think about getting some acidipholiz and would be using it right away. This will help replace the good gut flora may be lost during treatment with regular meds.



Hope everything turns out ok. Wish I could help more.
