Can someone ask @TudyBOT for me?

@TudyBOT

Can you provide what treatments there are for each of the 4 conditions above?

Thank you everyone! My 2 year old Dominique has had breathing issues for about 6 weeks now. Her whole body heaves with every breath. I wake up every morning worried she won't have made it through the night We have been to the vet 5 times in the last month. And now that we got the CT scan back today and it pinpoints a reproductive system issue, we will go back tomorrow to discuss course of action with the specialist.

They had previously done bloodwork, xrays, and ultrasound but it was inconclusive. It showed enlarged heart & liver cavities and 'muddled' lungs. She was prescribed antibiotics and a diuretic for a month but it didn't help at all. And she's only gotten worse. So we decided to do the CT scan. But of course the report is medical jargon so it helps that TudyBOT can pull it together for me. Rather than me trying to get a definition by Googling word for word.

I am so sorry, it's tough to watch them struggle.

I'm so sorry to hear about Dominique's breathing issues, and I understand how worrying it must be for you. While I can provide some general information on treatments for the conditions you mentioned, it's important to remember that I am not a veterinarian. Your best course of action is to discuss treatment options with a veterinarian who specializes in avian medicine.

1. Enlarged heart and liver cavities: Enlargement of the heart and liver can be indicative of various underlying conditions. Treatment will depend on the specific cause identified through diagnostic tests and examination. It may involve addressing any underlying infections, inflammation, or other diseases. Medications, such as antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs, may be prescribed to manage the condition and support the affected organs. The treatment plan will be tailored to your chicken's specific needs and may require ongoing monitoring and adjustments.

2. 'Muddled' lungs: The term "muddled" lungs may refer to abnormal findings in the lung tissue seen on imaging or diagnostic tests. This could indicate inflammation, infection, or other respiratory issues. Treatment options will depend on the underlying cause. Infections may be treated with appropriate antibiotics or antiviral medications. If there is inflammation, anti-inflammatory drugs may be prescribed. It's important to address any environmental or management factors that could contribute to respiratory issues, such as proper ventilation or reducing exposure to irritants.

3. Reproductive system issue: The treatment for the reproductive system issue will depend on the specific diagnosis made based on the CT scan results. Enlargement of the multiple follicular ovaries and oviduct/reproductive tract is a potential finding. Treatment options may include hormonal therapy to regulate the reproductive system, surgical intervention to address any abnormalities or masses, or other targeted treatments based on the diagnosis. A veterinary specialist experienced in avian reproductive health will be able to guide you through the treatment options specific to Dominique's condition.

It's essential to work closely with your veterinarian and any specialists involved to develop an appropriate treatment plan for Dominique. They will be able to provide a tailored approach based on her specific condition, as well as monitor her progress and adjust the treatment as needed.

Wait, I didn't know you had to be a paying member to ask Tudy stuff. I asked her stuff all the time in the April Fools Day Thread. What did I miss

I'm so sorry. Maybe the specialist will have some idea of how to help her. Let us know how it goes.

why did they change it?

 

[chrissynemetz]

why did they change it?

Because lots of her answers are incorrect. Like, REALLY incorrect. So they didn't feel comfortable having new members freely accessing her.
