is this a sign of MBD or something different

Thanks everyone for the reply and help...I called round today and no vets here can help me.. the closest they do is iguanas and beardies...depending on what's wrong...I called the 2 vets that were 3+ hours away and can't afford the vet visit let alone the meds let alone the gas money. Hubby has been out of work since august when he messed up shoulder and just got the surgery on 25th..we have a 2 yr old and another due ony day now...but I have a induction for the 6th scheduled if no baby before then. Plus 5 cats and 4 dogs to look after...
I am at a loss on what to do...I feel bad trying to help him and getting in to deep..didn't think it was this serious

What do I do now? Do I humanely euthanize before he suffers and gets worse? Do I try the quarantine tank and bactine or is he too far gone for that to even help? I feel terrible but want to do the best and do what I can. Sadly I cannot get the proper vet care as the vets here don't even want to attempt it. And if they did I don't know if I could afford it.

I feel terrible and defeated

I'm so sorry Lynnsey, I can imagine how you feel, don't feel terrible, you do what you can and you care about that frog despite you have so much on your plate right now.
have you asked your local vets if they can sell you baytril to be used on your own risk? if they have no clue when it comes to frogs that is ok, all you need are meds and very small amount of it for them to charge a lot, my guess it shouldn't be more then 20$ and of course in your situation I would never drive for 3+ hours one way. when i was due with a second one i was told to keep my distance no more then 30 min drive to the hospital
look he is active and eating, right? so it is not too late then. have you called Dr. Frye? he is your best shot, he can send you antibiotics and meanwhile you can to treat with bactrine and keep him very clean.
