Thanks for all of your concerns and help.

My girl had been treated for an RI many months before she relapsed one weekend. She had eaten a rat three days prior and she showed no signs of being sick up until we heard her cough on Sat. The cough caused her to slip partially off her perch so I immediately called my vet. Long story short, she was temporarily put back on oral Baytril... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (Kim Burge) http://chondroforum.yuku.com/sreply/8140 Thu, 22 Feb 2007 12:25:37 GMT http://chondroforum.yuku.com/reply/8139/t/NEED-HELP.html#reply-8139 . I'm praying for you and your chondro.

Kim, can you explain this in detail so that the rest of us (or just me) can understand and learn from this...

On page 716 of the Mader book there is another photo, and this caption: Cellulitis is a deep diffuse suppurative infection in areas of low oxygen tension that can have a similar presentation to large abcesses but does not have the solid core center.

In the photo they are attempting to aspirate the core contents in a burm with "cephalic cellutis" ( the swollen head in the burm looks like what is going on with your... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (Kim Heller) http://chondroforum.yuku.com/sreply/8136 Tue, 20 Feb 2007 20:23:45 GMT http://chondroforum.yuku.com/reply/8134/t/NEED-HELP.html#reply-8134

You can search by state..
Almost looks like subcutaneous air. If you push on her body, does it feel like bubbles????? In humans, it feels like rice crispies just under the skin.
Good luck with her..Keep us posted.

Hi everyone,
I have a serious matter at hands and hope you can help.I have a 3 year old GTP.It is supposed to be a Biak outcross of some kind.She is in bad shape.I noticed her making sounds like she had a RI a few weeks ago.She would only do this when agitated.I checked her for an RI and could not see any signs.I go in there today and she is totally deformed.Her head is blown up to the size of an egg... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (billzuk1) http://chondroforum.yuku.com/topic/2133 Tue, 20 Feb 2007 16:12:57 GMT
