I have a sick veiled and I am not sure if there is anything else I can do. I think he is going to die. He was acting normal, but he had a bump on his nose and some bacteria on his mouth, so I took him to the vet. They gave him antibiotics and his mouth cleared up but then he started acting lethargic, sitting on the bottom of the cage, not eating and has not had a bowel movement in over a week. We tried soaking him for dehydration, the vet gave him medicine for parasites, we tried a powder food mixture, but he is getting worse. Any ideas to help?

Hope I'm not too late. Did the vet clean out the infected areas and put the chameleon on antibiotics after doing a culture and sensitivity test?
