What about giving her warm water to help dissolve what ever it is? How did he diagnose it? Could it be some kind of tumor or is he sure it's a foreign object?

Well that was the oddest thing Ive ever done. I havent nebulized a bird before, but she took it like a trooper. He wants her nebulized because its the best way to it deep into the trachea. I was watching her disapear in a cloud of fog. It only took about six minutes or so. Ill still be tube feeding her to keep her weight up. Hope we get through tonite without any gasping issues.

hey everyone. Quick update on Peanut. Shes's still up and down, seems to have good days and gets bad at night. Shes getting Amphotericin mixed with Sodium chloride in the nebulizer. Odd, but I think she likes the nebulizer, she puts her face right into it and looks all relaxed. Right now shes quiet and no gasping. I hope she gets through the nite ok. I called Dr. Driggers with this conern, and hope to hear from him tomorrow.

Glad Peanut is improving. He may like the nebulizer because it makes him feel better.

Well I'm worried, did he say what kind of mass or obstruction it was? Is the nebulizer supposed to help dissolve it?
