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.
Thank you. Shes doing a lot better today guys but im in a right state, i cannot get her medication into her on my own, ive tried everything, laying her on her side, her back, tilting her head back, holding her close, she has clawed living daylights out of me, spits them out etc its impossible on my own, i end up shouting for my boyfriend to help me (he takes ages to come and help too) hes planning on leaving me tomorrow morning to go home and i live alone, why cant he just do the boyfriend thing and offer to help and take care of her whilst im struggling so much, we even struggle to get meds down her together. The vets cant inject her with fiberplex or her panacur which is very important right now, she also has pain meds and antibiotics still to prevent infection. Honestly in a right state over this and dunno what to do and wish he'd just do the boyfriend thing and offer to stay and help
