Re: Mystery of Ghandi

So, Ghandi's symptoms are that he's lethargic/not energetic, has a slight temp at times and is not eating enough?  No diarrhea, no vomiting.  Hmmm.  That doesn't sound like Giardia/Coccidia to me, but then, I'm no vet.  Has he been wormed for the regular type of parasites?  I've never heard of worms causing a temp, but then a temp of 102 - 103, is not really that high.  Temps can be higher under stress, and sometimes even just taking a temp can be stressful.  If this was done in the vet's office, no doubt the little guy was feeling stressed at the time.

Ghandi does not have diarreah and haven’t done the exam yet – the vet took try to take some samples when taking his temperature, but it was not enough for fecal exam – so I am supposed to take samples to them when I get some.. and have not done that -  he is not vomiting at all, and the vet told me that she would not necessary treat animals with giardia if they are not having diarrhea.. so I don’t know what do to..   I gave Panucur to Jasmine – and was a bit worried because she acted very differently I gave some drug (and I only gave a half of what I was supposed to do) – she is ok now, but now I am really nervous about giving a drug to Ghandi, too…
