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.

He was very thorough ears, eyes, lady bits, teeth,temp, hocks, movement, dewlap and stomach/lungs/heart all checked.
But she chewed the scope constantly [emoji19]
She's hungry, she keeps checking my hands when I go in to her but hasn't fancied anything I've offered.

Could be that she does have some issues with her teeth that the Vet could not see. Is she still passing some poo ?

Yes teeny hard one every so often, she keeps pooing on hubby after we have to chase her a bit to capture her. It seems like the movement is triggering it.
She's just had her meds and a feed we've managed almost 20ml over two this morning. She's looking very stressed now unfortunately quite heavy breathing but I'm hoping the feet out mean she is slowly calming down.
I'm in the middle of a work meeting but after I think I'll call the vets with an update and see what they'd like us to do. She's had three doses of metacam and two of ranitidine and normally with other buns I'd have seen an improvement by now but I just don't know her illness ways that well.

Walli sometimes twitch a lot and tilt the head to the side a bit when he is sleeping and I assume dreaming. It looks a bit like it does in your video. Does she has a head tilt when she is moving as well?
A trip back to the vets sounds good, hope it all goes well.

He said he has a list for things we need to do at home and also separate the buns.

I use clean n safe for cleaning but vet has recommended something else to do everything with.
I'll have to re set up the bonding zone I think. Is there anything you guys would recommend to help keep them clean?

I hope the Panacur will do its job so Blossom will feel better and they can be reunited. Sending her so, so many vibes. How is Rodney doing? Since he had smaller poops yesterday?
