Just a little update from Chyna!
The great news is...no more breathing issues have happened since all of this has started. Yay for that!
Now for the not so good news..We finished up the 2 weeks of baytril, and were doing the benebac. She tried to go off her water when I did ACV, so I stopped.
Our weight was still fluctuating up and down, and some days she wanted to eat, others was a struggle. I tried to even give her the HF formula again...that went terrible...She and I both ended up wearing more than she ate (again)!
I noticed this weekend that she was shaking her head several times, then made the regurg motion numerous times in a row. She really did not want to eat, but when she did..I noticed her closing her eyes when she swallowed. I just new
this poor baby's throat or something was hurting! She still had this random "hoarse squeak" every once in a while.
We were finally able to get in with the 3rd and final vet even remotely close to this area Monday. The baytril was great for the previous infection, but he swabbed her and checked and sure enough..yeast. I already had a feeling this was what was going on...Now we are on 1.3ml Nystatin 2x day then recheck after a week. She absolutely hates this medicine. It is a struggle giving her this one. I really hope this works, and this is the end of this rollercoaster ride.
This vet is who our regular vet recommended from the beginning..but he was on vacation when all of this started. This is the first time I have felt any of these avian vets truly listened. She's not well yet, but I felt like a ton of bricks lifted once we left there. Maybe just relieved to have someone that can help. I don't have the hopeless feeling anymore. She didn't seem as stressed out with him either. I really think he may be our new vet!
Just wanted to update you all
