Couldn't they at least prescribe metacam for the inflammation to see if that helps? I know it is used in avian patients, so I would think it is safe to use in reptiles, but that is more for a veterinarian to answer.

Not sure what his issue is. Mine just went to the vet over two weeks ago.He was too small to do any blood work on so it was all guessing. He was getting swollen neck, swollen armpits, wouldn't hardly eat, kept missing bugs, falling off branches. I had him on carnivore care for the first week and on and off with it after that . Took him off the Mazurii feed I was giving the crickets(has too much animal protein for crickets) switched over to cricket crack(plant based protein). Now for the past three days or so he has been drinking really really well, getting better with his tongue, less falling and swelling. So over two weeks he improved alot. Yesterday he took 3 different feeders. He was really really on and off for the first 1 1?2

My male Veiled was prescribed Metacam for his arthritis elbows. The vet said it tasted like honey and the only time I could get Tommy to eat every day was when I was injecting his locusts with Metacam.
