[Jdsixtyone]

Take him 2 the vet.

 

[itbites]

Doesn't sound very good at all...

I'd be getting in touch with the vet you went to asap.

 

[miss2]

yeah, spewing blood is never healthy...... get in contact with a vet asap
good luck

 

[gecko-mad]

coughing up blood? concerned! ring the vet and explain is all i can say

 

[Andrais]

k,
we can't take him to the emergency vet as nobody is avalible who does reptiles so were taking him to his vet asap in the morning, he looks fine when i checked on him, but as i said, its an interal infection you don;t know wht could be happenin inside

how are you doing the injections? S/C or I/M? maybe you went in too far?

no, the vets doing the injections, so i don't know how he did it? maybe its just a bit to much for him, this medication and injections? :?

 

[kupper]

Doubt it unless he vomited up the actual crap that the antis are fighting , are his stools bloody as well ?

 

[Andrais]

are his stools bloody as well ?

Sorrry i am confused, wht is his stool?

 

[IgotFrogs]

Stool... is a nice way of saying in his Poop ......

 

[Andrais]

he hasn't pooped yet, so i don't know

 

[Andrais]

to tell u the truth, i havn't seen him poo since, like a week ago. i feed him once every 2 days with baby food ( i'll get him back on his nromal diet when he's better)

Is there a chance that your Bob has eaten, or tried to eat somethingn that he shouldn't have? Stones, sticks etc? Try to keep him comfortable till you can get to a vet, and keep the stress to a minimum.
I hope this guy gets better, you haven't had the best of fun with him lately. I hope it all turns out well anyway.

no, not that i know of, were using kitty litter at the moment for his substrate, but i dont think he would of swallowed it, and we havn't put any sticks or stones in his enclosure. we've got him in a storage container at the moment, and its ontop of a heat pad. Thanks anyway for your comment, i hope he gets better fast, i just want my bob back again

how is bob?

 

[Andrais]

Hi everyone,
sorry i did relpy earlier, had a really long day working and im totally buggered. Took bob to the vet this morning, he said he was ok and that the blood was probally caused by a irruption of the infection, his vomiting blood was actually a good thing, casue he was clearing out his system. The vet gave him another injection just to be sure that it was anything else. He'll be going back their on monday.

maybe bob could be kept in a warm /dark spot for a day or two to help in his recovery.
if you are not doing this already.
JMO.
cheers
