My friend's dwarf lionhead, Sinbad, has just been diagnosed with EC. Any spare vibes would be appreciated, and also any info from people who have EC bunnies themselves?

Thank you for all the vibes and advice. He doesn't have head tilt and hasn't been rolling, he has runny eyes, sore bits and a weird limp. He is also toileting everywhere and sitting in it, so needs daily washing. That's as much as I know, he's been given some things by the vet but I'm waiting for an update from my friend. Fingers crossed
Hiya, I hope I'm not speaking out of turn but the symptoms you describe sound more like myxi than EC?! :? Runny eyes and sore 'bits' are the main symptoms of myxi unless I am mistaken. I have had a bun with EC in the past and she didn't have those... Is your friend's vet knowledgable about rabbits?
That's what I said initially, but apparently the vet said that he is sore because of his changed toilet habits? Which makes sense I guess. Also, they were putting sudocrem on him to try and make him less sore before he went, and it got much less inflamed - not sure if that would have happened with myxi? I have no experience of either so don't really know! Also I haven't seen him, so can't be very accurate I'm afraid.
As far as I know they took him to the same vet practice as my two go to, but whether they saw the specific rabbit savvy vet that I trust and always ask for, I don't know.
