Please Note - Medical Advice
Please keep in mind that posts on this forum are from members of the public sharing personal opinions. It is not a replacement for qualified medical advice from a veterinarian. Many illnesses share similar symptoms but require different treatments. A medical exam is necessary for an accurate diagnosis, without which appropriate treatment cannot be given.
You should always consult your vet before following any suggestions for medication or treatment you have read about. The wrong treatment could make your rabbit worse or mean your vet is unable to give the correct treatment because of drug interactions. Even non prescription drugs can do harm if given inappropriately.
We are very grateful to members who take time to answer other members questions, but please do be clear in your replies that you are sharing personal experience and not giving instructions on what must be done.
Urgent Medical Advice: If you need, or think you might need, urgent medical advice you should contact a vet. If it is out of working hours phone your vet's normal number and there should be an answer phone message with instructions on what to do.
) X I took her back to the vet who said that it was an adverse reaction the the jab. She said she had seen a number of buns who'd reacted badly to it and also advised me against having further VHD boosters as the reaction would get worse over time instead of better.Bundle said:Bundle was ok with the first VHD jab she had as a baby but had a very bad reaction to the booster. She was really off colour for a couple of days, went right off her food (which is very unlike her! :lol: ) and seemed stiff and in pain - she could barely move around and seemed to be wincing
Having read numerous posts on here I would say that Bundle's reaction was probably the exception rather than the rule, and I am definitely going to get Weedie's jab done now that he's recovered fully from his op. Am undecided what to do about Bundle's boosters going forward though.... :? :?
