did the vet take tissue samples and send them to be tested mate ?
imo i cant see how he can make the diagnosis just by looking at the snake.yes the symptoms of ibd may be showing but there are other causes such as neuro issues that can cause similar symptoms.im not saying hes wrong but surely he sent tissue away to confirm his diagnosis 100%.
did he do a post mortem ? that can show liesons on the liver,kidneys etc.im just puzzled as to how he can be so sure using eyesight only mate.
its a good idea the fumagation but i'd be wanting tests done on the blood python.
i really hope that its only the brb and the blood you loose.i'll have everything crossed for you feebs.
