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.

    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.

A slight positive for Teddy!

Finally something good to say! He has gained 0.15kg since last week! He's still underweight but this is a good sign for him. I still have lots of concerns but I was really worried he would carry on losing weight so can breathe a small sigh of relief. Hopefully the anabolic steroid is helping him.

He also has a small eye ulcer which is clearing up despite him rubbing it and making it red and sore. The vet is confident it will clear up soon but we have more eye drops just to be on the safe side.

This is good news, go Teddy :love: I hope his ulcer clears up soon :thumb:
Me too, he's only got sight in that eye so we need it to be fully functioning! I've read that ulcers/eye injuries can be common in tilty buns so he's done well not to have any problems until now.

He's also been chomping through some grass this evening which he hasn't done for months. Hoping that'll help with the weight and the teeth issues!

Thanks all, I don't want to get ahead of myself and think he's magically cured, he still gets tired quickly which makes sense considering his bloods, but to me it's a sign that he's a bit more comfortable in himself so I'll take the positives when I can get them.
