Orion went to the vet yesterday and got fluids, vitamin B shot, meds for constipation and his blood work done. Vet just called and he is fighting an infection, so will be picking up antibiotics that he will get daily for 3 weeks. He said he should be feeling better soon, which is a huge relief...
Another question - he had the surgery almost 1 month ago and is still very lethargic - he will even fall asleep in the middle of eating. Is this typical? His usual personality is very energetic. I am going to bring him to vet next week, but thought you may have some insight.
My CA desert tortoise is having an 8.5 cm bladder stone removed next week. We only recently adopted him, so he has had this a long time. Does anyone have experience with what to expect during recovery after the surgery? He is a rescue so not sure of his age, but probably around 60 years old...
