~Help!~ Mr Magoo is STILL sick...

[MYGODDESSERIN]

But he HAS made great improvement.

I am posting partial post because EVERY TIME I am close to being done, something happens and my entire post is just gone. Grrrrrrr.
Attached pictures are Magoo when this first began, pic's taken today to follow. Please bear with me while I try and get it right, FOURTH TIME NOW.
Sigh.


...But he has greatly improved since "this" began around four mounths ago. In the beginning, I thought it was scale rot, for which he has been treated for one other time in the nearly seven years we've been together. I called the Vet, got the Silvadene Cream, and began treating. I'm not sure at what point I realized S.R. was not what was wrong, but since their metabolism is so slow, it was at least a full shed cycle. Let me say that Magoo is everything to me, and he spends quite a bit of time outside of his enclosure, so I did not one day "look in on him" only to discover problems.

I was having my usual life issues, and funds were limited, so I called her up and asked if I could e-mail her some pictures. She said she didn't know how much she could tell from photos, but go ahead and send them. I told her if she couldn't get anything from the photos, I would sell my soul to bring him in if need be.

She said, I believe, that it was a bacterial infection, and gave me 12 doses of Fortaz, an antimicribial, and a brief tutorial on injections. $55.00.
