Recently (Tuesday night) I purchased a pair of centralian blueys
The bluey at the rear in the photo is anemic and has a protein level of 6 ( for those who doesn't know what that means well if a dog has 10 or under they receive a blood transfusion so a level of 6 is very bad) I have assist feed a pinky rat to help boost this.
It also has a fluid leak from somewhere in the body region, 10 ml of fluid was removed and it was put under the microscope where no white blood cells or protein was found so the fluid is just basically brown/yellow water so the fluid is not the result of the anemia. Also that being said this rules out an internal infection
An ultra sound was then preformed and no unusual lumps where detected,
On top of that it has a secondary infection on the right upper jaw ... Mouth rot.
As you can see the upper jaw is rotting away I have been given fortrum injections to correct this,
I have blood at the vets in case I'd like to have a pathology test done to see if cancer cells are in the blood
The vet has said there is no escaping the inevitable and that it most likely die from the leak. Surgery isnt an option As it wouldn't make it through the surgery.
the fluid is pushing on the lungs already (you can hear the sloshing noise as it breaths, but there is no sign of ri )
The years I have had reptiles I have never heard of one with lukimia
I have contacted the seller and they have said that they will deposit the money back into my bank account tomorrow
I must also add that none of what ive just mentioned stood out when I picked the blueys up it just looked skinny
