help! updated #49 on baytril - doughnut is making a strange sound

[MightyMax]

Pity it's not septrin as she loves that! I guess that is the next option if baytril doesn't work, I think I read somewhere vets have to start off with baytril, not sure why or maybe I'm talking rubbish

I would expect to see an improvement within 3/4 days.

No, vets don't have to prescribe Baytril first, and all the vets I have used never do What's appropriate is what matters, not what it says you 'should' do in any book!

Thanks both. I will remain patient! I just hate hearing the noise all the time but she's eating and happy to will try not to worry.

I'm at work worrying about her now as even when she moves around she makes the noise now but there's no nose discharge and she's eating so I guess she's OK. Rabbits are stressful!

Goodness me, tell me about it! I'm in the process of making 'that decision', so full on stress here too!

I hope she's OK and recovers .. They are certainly unfathomable sometimes ...

Thanks. She is taking it as I am mixing it in but she has noticed as only takes a little bit to taste it first. The noise sounds awful and quite constant but she's still happy.

bit late to this thread but matt used to make this noise sometimes. his was an echo from the back of his nose even though it sounded more like from the throat or chest. he was a chronic snuffle bun as you know

That's interesting. It's hard to figure out where it comes from. Hopefully the medicine will help wherever it is!

Hi Cpayne sending vibes for ur wee bun x x

 

[cpayne]

Well Doughnuts had 4 doses now and we are resorting to Weetabix with bayril and infracol over the top! She will only take a tiny taste of her medicine from the syringe now to check what it tastes like and if there is any doubt that's it, so giving her other medicines as normal. She's eating it all up so I have no doubt she is getting the full dose.

She's not any better though, noises all the time. I will wait until Monday after 8 days of the 10 if there's no improvement and see if it's worth trying septrin or something else. Do you think if it is going to work it should have worked after 8 days? I don't want to jump in too quick but would rather get her on to something else if this isn't the right one for her. What confuses me is she is still happy and eating, which is great.
