Why does my monitor keep throwing up every time he eats. please help.

flpsk8119 Feb 16, 2004 07:10 PM

I took my black throat monitor to the vet two weeks ago because he has been very sick. he didn't eat at all befor but he is begining to get a good apetite again. the problem is everytime he eats now he throws up his food a little while later. His temps are high enough to digest. His basking spot is almost 150 and when hes not there his in a warm spot of the cage which is about 90-100 degrees. i barely ever see him drink. Today he had a dose of flagle for his parasites. i was eating chicken so i gave him a peice. He threw it up an hour later. it sempt like it was coverd in mucus. it may have also been the flagle. Can any one tell me what they think is wrong with him. please help if you can. O and the chiken was just a small peice of roast chiken with nothing on it.

If he has parasites then that is why he is throwing up.These are things your vet is best qualified for answering.
