Frilled dragon with metabolic bone disease. Help

Puff is a frilled dragon and he has been sick

he has metabolic bone disease. I have been aggressively treating him. My question is this: is the stopping of the shakes a sign of recovery?

well thanks for the outpouring of support and well wishes he is definitely doing better

Excellent pic! Nice to hear your Frilled is doing well! Is it a Kingii Australian?

Soo good to hear that you caught it early enough! Keep the good things going

I'm so glad that you were able to help him. I adopted a frilled years ago that was too far gone. Its owners had been keeping it in their cold basement with no UV light. I did the best that I could for her, and my vet tried calcium injections, but she ended up passing away a month later.

I hope your guy continues to recover and thrive for you!
