hi there
I have a bunny who has been disabled for 2 years now and has recently started making a snorting noise. She was initially given bisolvin and baytril but this didnt improve the noise. The vet then said he could hear fluid on her lungs and we started her on diretics and has had 2 depocilling injections, but still no improvement.
She had an xray on tuesday but as we wanted to do a conscious xray and we didnt get the best one possible as her legs got in the way becasue of how she lies down. however the vet could see that her heart was not enlarged and looked good and her lungs looked good as well.
we are now going to try nebulising her with F10 in the next day or so although my vet wasn't sure how effective theis would be on lungs but we want to give it ago.
I do wonder if it is something to do with her disability as she lies in the same position on one side and scoots around from this same position. For the past 2 years I have been excercising her on a scarf in the garden which she loves but the past few months i have been unable to do this due to bad weather and constant wet grass, me being ill and since she became poorly. I know people that are bed ridden can get chest infections and I wonder if this could be part of her problem. I have started gentle excercises again for her to see if it helps.
any thoughts would be appreciated
