lucia on the mend (pics included)

so this last round of meds really did the trick. she has two shots left but i am going to continue to soak her and use the silvadine or whatever until all the ugly scales have fallen off. once these two shots are over with, she is going back in with her siblings. she has been evil eyeing me that she is still in the much smaller sick tank.

in the first picture, it is obviously her stomach. it is a little whiter than normal as i had just put the cream on her but you can see how large the originally little spot got.


and the original little spot

this last shot is where it was on her eyelids and why i was panicking so bad at the time. she never got blisters on her eyelids but she did get the red stain. the antibiotics kicked in fast enough i circled the area since you all don't really know what she looks like and also it might just look like glare, ha ha

Thats great Vonnie shes healing up. That blister disease looks nasty even when its healing. Hopefully that will be the last of it.

** Make darn sure shes healed before returning her with the others.

Keep your pics for reference !

there have not been any new bumps, anywhere. she gets looked over more than she likes when these last two injections are done with, it will have been a month since i saw the last vet

plus there is no sand in any of the cages. they all live on towels so there will be nothing to irritate her

when this all started she was living with other lizards, no one has ever shown signs of anything.

it will always be a mystery but yes i am keeping the pictures. i wish i had some when she was at her blister worst but it made me too sad to look at them

You've done a great job caring for her. I'm relieved to see how much she has improved. Thanks for posting the pictures.
