Sending healing wishes Bailey's way - any update on her condition?

Awww, poor baby! I hope she will get better and soon. I can only imagine what she feels and how hard it is to see it day to day. I will pray and send all love to Bailey.

Well, I'm sad to report that she just seems to be getting slowly weaker again. She has an appointment again on Monday to do blood tests etc. I have started doing a particualr t-touch metho on her recommended by Dr. Harvey, as well as some physical therapy to help prevent her muscles from stiffening up. It helps at the time to get her moving, but each day, it's like starting over again to loosen her muscles and get her more active. On Monday, I will also be discussing acupuncture with the vet and set up an appointment if necessary.

I've made soft ramps to help her up to her litterbox, because she stopped using it as much. It is hard to watch her struggle to scratch her ears, she usually just shakes her head. She had regained her ability to scratch her own ears, but now she can't anymore.

e.cuniculi sucks!

Oh poor baby!!!!!!!!! me and cookie send lots of healing vibes!!!!!!
(((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((healing vibes))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

oo I'm so sad to hear that Bailey isn't getting stronger :-( I really hope they will have some good suggestions for you tomorrow at the vet. Are you going to have to travel down to Chabold now that Dr Harvey isn't at VCA anymore?

Sweet BB .... Oh geeezzz your poor lil putzy fur face ... sorry to hear Bailey babe is not well again.  Give her lotsa cuddles from myself and my four furry faces .

Get well SOOOOOOONNNNNNN Bailey Girl.

Bailey Bum, get better soon, Brian Bumstar needs his american relatives all happy and tip toppety, and Miss Bettie Bean sends Bailey a - leap about a bit, dive under the nose, and flop out next to - HUGE bit of bunny love! (it's the best kind!!)

How is Bailey doing?

Thanks everyone for your continued support! Her tests came back with no major problems to her organs (due to the meds), but we'll need to test again in a month. My husband is in charge of her care right now while I am out of town, but the day before I left, she seemed to be a bit stronger, so maybe all the PT and massages are helping.

I'll keep you updated.

mediserpa - e.cuniculi is an incurable parasitic disease that affects a bunny's nervous system, brain, and/or kidneys. One of every four rabbits are tested positive though not all will develop symptoms. Testing positive doesn't mean a rabbit has it, just means a rabbit has been exposed - only time willl tell if it actually contracted it. Symptoms very from rabbit to rabbit. Some get head tilt, some get hind quarter paralysis or full blown paralysis. I noticed Bailey getting weaker, and so I have done everything I could to prevent it from getting worse.

Head tilt can happen for many other reasons too, but if you are worried, you can always have your bunny tested, and treated with drugs that are supposed to help kill off the parasites (sometimes with great results long term or short term - again how a bunny responds is also individual.)
