    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.

Help my snowball please.

Update, again:

Snowball has seen the vet, The vet doesn't think it's EC but gave me a 18 day Panacur to try.
He thinks it's nerve damage and would be better if got put to sleep. But I'm going to try the 18 day course of the meds to see if it does work.

Fingers crossed this works.
 
I don't think I've ever hoped a bun has EC, sending vibes for the little one, I so hope he responds to the treatment.

((((((((((((((((((((((((VIBES))))))))))))))))))))))))
 
think you mean 28 days - if the vet has said 18 days then they need to go back to the manfacturers notes and check themselves.
 
Sending lots of 'get well soon' vibes for Snowball. I hope you see some improvement soon xx
 
Update:

Today I took snowball out of his house for a little "run round" on the landing, He's starting to hop a bit better on his right hind leg and is less wobbly. So either the Panacur is working or the memory foam bed is helping him.
Also I've noticed his appetite has increased a lot, My snowball has never been much of an eater but he's eating everything I give him which is lovely to see. He's pooping and wee'ing like a champ too.
