if she had just eaten why the hell was the vet trying to force a poop??? how long ago had it fed? u got any pics? aftre eating u need to leave alone for 5 days usually for the food to be fully digested and so u dont get a regurge!

Well instaed of doing that couldnt you have brought in a sample after she defecated? What he did was completely un-necessary.

Real limp like that after being worked over is near death.. Sorry but your vet sounds like a reptile retard.. Get a new vet. If he wanted to check for parasites a simple "hey can you bring in a stool sample" would have done the trick.

So is it doing any better? I was really worried for you. I was afraid you would lose her too.
