Wise Old Thumper
Well after getting the latest culture back on Parsley's inner/middle ear abcsess we are due another vet consultation on Monday when we were considering Convenia. (having tried rifampicin, baytril (enroflaxicin), metronidazale, depocillin, genticin (topical) (and varieties of the above in combination, and with and without draining/flush etc etc).
However speaking with two different referral vets at the RWA conference they both said that the time convenia spends in the body of the rabbit before being passed through is literally about an hour and so really has no effect. I know some people here have used it but I am now not so sure about trying it - it seems to perhaps have more risks than positives if it stays in for such a short time. . .apparently they dont use it on horses either because of that.
I just feel we are going round in circles .. . (though fortunately despite having a head full of puss Parsley has neither head tilt nor a propensity to go round in circles!!!).
Where to go next?????
