okay, sorry for the extra post (is that okay on here? my forum etiquette is outdated); wanted to fill in with more info now that i can, was in a rush. she has the proper bulb now and is warming up. we thought we were going to get her back a different monday and wound up waiting an extra week for...

sorry for the time i've been gone! (again!) took so long to update because they couldnt get their x-ray people until recently. she only came home two days ago. it was mostly the same info as before, other than the occasional "sorry, we're working on it". she's still definitely off and slept for...

sorry for being a bit late! i wound up having heart issues after LOL great timing. i'm fine right now, though. update on the tort.. she's doing okay so far. i'm honestly surprised by how alert she was after finally waking up; she was asleep for a full 12 hours. she was injected with a regular...

i've made sure to set up everything in advance, but reminders always help. thank you!

thank you everyone for the replies! i'm getting her a soak as we speak since shes awake now. shes still very lethargic, but she's at least acknowledging we're here, now. i'll make sure to mention all of this to the vet when we get her there.

thank you so much for the offer, but i wouldn't want to burden you any unless i had to. i'll stick with amazon if i can, once i can get ahold of my card again. i'll make sure to message you if i need to, though! its an absolute help, thank you so much

thank you so much, it's really comforting to hear that i hope she does too, she's a silly little guy and deserves nothing but the best

thank you so much for the reply and tags, i wasn't entirely sure how to go about this right now she's asleep so i'm worried about stressing her out if i put her in for a soak; she's gotten another soak since first post (& vomited two more times) but she still hasn't been in very long because of...

so uh, sorry if this isn't the place to post this, sort of out of options and desperate tbh our russian tortoise (~11 - 14 y/o) was recently prescribed danofloxacin for respiratory issues. maybe 10 to 15 minutes after her shot, she got ill. at ~6 - 7 pm tonight (no vets open, of course we'd get...
