I think Jackson is going to go today

[saroj12]

thank you!

Tonight’s opportunity for oxygen went by. I got back from work and he was hungry. After eating he throws up in oxygen. He’s doing okay though. A little sneezy. He often has a runny nose. Vet decided allergies

Jackson!

 

[rockoko]

Such a wonderful array of goodies!

 

[Begone]

I have my techs to thank for it.

No you have yourself to thanks for your concern and way to always take good care of your birds.
Your vet techs are only tools.
You always do what is best for your birds, and you listen to others when you don't know what to do.
You never playing God, and acting like you know everything.
Thank yourself for being one of the best parronts ever!

He looks so contented standing in the middle of yum yum heaven. He is a very beautiful green. Green parrots are so lush and stunning.

Feel better Jackson.

Waiting might be good. Cultures take longer when they don't grow anything.

Lurch did that a couple of times, nasty looking runny nose but no breathing issues and otherwise fine. I asked about it here and he seemed fine and it only happened once or twice.
Jackson sure looks like his happy old self again. it's scary how fragile they can be all of a sudden and he's lucky you caught on and stopped that med immediately.

i was giving up that morning. had no clue it was the meds. somehow it got into my mind that it might be the meds, maybe someone suggested it. anyway i followed that line of thought. he's still not 100% but i'd say 75%.

 

[FLmom]

Oh wow I’m so glad he’s turned around.

I'm so glad he's doing better!! I can't til he's back to 100% again. Thread is definitely an eye opener. I would have never thought of an allergic response from meds. I'm so glad you caught it. I'm sorry you both had to go through it. You're such an attentive and loving owner. I so glad Jackson has you!!

The two meds that I know of that you need to watch for reactions with are Sulfatrim (any bird) and Flagyl (especially macaws). There are some fungicides that will cause reaction - Amphotericin B (very dangerous) and irtraconazole (hepatoxic).

 

[saroj12]

Terbinafine and Mucomyst. The vet is mixing it up. I am in the waiting area of the clinic. Jackson’s breathing problems came back.

 

[saroj12]

For nebulizing

 

[enigma731]

Nebulizing is a good idea.

 

[CeciliaZ]

I hope he will be Ok

 

[saroj12]

Nebulizing is a good idea.

Couldn’t find Mucomyst anywhere called and went to drugstores. Finally got it at a pharmacy next to the hospital.

I’m catching up with thread after two days and I got so happy with his recovery but I am worried about him now.

I’m so sorry this is happening to you. My ‘tiel once accidentally aspirated on an oral medication (he was moving a lot) and I had to rush him to ER. We didn’t know if he would make it. He was only 4 months old then. I cried till I couldn’t anymore. Vet said that if he survived the next 3 days, he’d make it. Worst 3 days of my life. Didn’t get one second of shut eye. He made it.

Keeping Jackson in my thoughts. I really hope the poor sweet bird gets a break from all this.

Are they planning on running any more tests on him?
