Jess, How is your little frog doing now? Did you notice if your frog had the hiccups?(just curious if there is a connection)
Paul, one more question.
If I do happen to check it myself*****How many are considered a infestation? Is there a website or book that shows or explains this stuff I can order or look at?
I tend not to trust vets! (1.) many don't have enough experience with exotic animals. A vet gave my 9 year old rabbit, Thumper, PCN and the first and only dose killed her and (2.) The vet around here gave my 16 year old dog Prozac for depression and he began having seizures all the time. The vet insisted there were no connections between the meds and his seizures, I seriously doubted him since he had never had one before, so I checked the drug in my PDR and in red the side effects were seizures!!! I took him off it and he hasn't had any since. I have a few other reasons, but I am sure nobody gives a rats ***, so let's leave it at this!!LOL
Being in the medical field for 22 years you start to distrust Dr's in every capacity.
*******My best advice to everyone is to learn what you can and be your own advocate. It can and will save yours and your families lives as well your pets. Trust me on this one, they make more mistakes than you know!!!
