hey thanks for the note bud, but i assure you she is the best vet around my area. i'll get her full title (was 9 or 10 letters after her name), you can even look her up on google. the names Jacqui Paterson, but please refrain from actually contacting her (i doubt you would, but safer to say than not) and the Flagyl isnt a strong dosage, its only 2% solution, the other 98% is water. i understand when you say to get a second opinion, but out of the 6 vets i phoned, and the 2 petshops, they said she was the best, and the fact that there arent any reptilian vets around either. she actually knew alot of stuff about gecko's, even cryptosporidium and other parasites, although, i agree they may jst read it all from books but not actually know what she is doing. i said 2 weeks for short term, he only needs it for the next 8 days (10 in total), but i'll most likely put him back into the vets a week on monday, as she said wait a few days to see if anything has improved.

i also know that waxies arent a good staple diet for leo's, but when he wont eat anythign else, its all i could do. in the past week he's had a waxworm and 2 mealies. im gonna try and tong feed him in a bit after i give him the flagyl, see if it wets his appetite.

all the input is very well appreciated
