Hi there
Im a newbie to the site, having spent the last week trawling the internet for information finally came across these pages. My bunny fudge is approx 6.5 years + and just over a week ago started with some weakness in his bk legs, he falls over to the right and sometimes moves around by dragging his hind legs behind him. he is eating well and seems ok in himself. I took him to the vet and they said it was probably arthritis and gave me some metacam but wouldnt treat for ec. I decided to give him panacur myself just incase as i keep reading things on the internet that seem similar and all mention ec.
I have just finished his 10 days of metacam, if it is ec do i need to get him some more or will panacur alone be ok? also he seemed to be improving yesterday but tonight is all wobbly again, is this to be expected,can they have good and bad days? he is on day 10 of panacur or is it more likely to be just old age and arthritis?
any comments would be really appreciated as I love him to bits and hate to see him like this, if it is ec will it get any better?
thanks
