If your not sure he can make the trip keep him there till he improves I'd say but you know him better then we do. The last time Nerd got really sick the vet would not do any tests or X rays becuase he was too weak to risk it and they gave him Oxeygen and some meds as a guess.
It’s not an avian vet and no one stays after 7 pm. I have an oxygen concentrator at home. I wish the vet would allow me to run it at a higher concentration.

He’s eating cooked quinoa now. He can’t see it. Just pecking in the pile that he found. I have the lights dimmed so as not to excite the caiques who set up screaming in bright lights at night.

So he ate some stuff, I didn’t helicopter parent him. Then he was ready to sleep at 7:30 so I covered him. I finally got out of there at 9 pm. He responded to my good night I love you with soft chirps. Can’t wait to see how he’s feeling in the morning.

He's cheerier and eating but still puffed up. I gave him metacam and the baytril is coming down to room temp before i give it. thanks for checking up on him!
If you want to warm it faster, you can draw the dose into the syringe and then roll it between your palms.

Keeping his eye open a little, seeing better, and has been snacking all morning. He’s looking good to go to the vet tomorrow. Can you believe this whole previous sentence was suggested by the iPad?

Thanks Robin and Cecilia and Terry! I've decided not to take him in tomorrow to have the vet check his eyes just quite yet. The appt. is during prime nap time, he is 25 yo and it will be a setback. She can check his eyes another time. She had wanted the current status so she could discuss the case with the avian vet I arranged for a consult. We can postpone that. LScoot will go in and get his eyelid checked.

You know him best of course, but I would want bloodwork and possibly cultures if I was in your position.
