Thank-you for that comment, Get it laminated and on the wall so your nurses see how much you are thinking about analgesing these little friends.

Best of luck.

Get Zydol from NVS, its soluble tramadol , Or get an account with Summitt who make small dose tablets for these guys.

As for the blood..... Got an iphone or ipad? Some suave sophisticated chap has just created an iphone App with degu blood sampling video on it. Gotta be worth 8 quid.

Theres also a tramadol dose for degus. Or go onto my website and download my free analgesics for exotics chart. the degu dose is the same as the chinchilla.

Hope this helps.

Thank you, we were thinking rads, I wasn't sure if we could get enough volume of blood for anything more then a smear from one this small (150g), just getting second thoughts with the shifting lameness, but an aminal this small I think I can stretch to both legs on the same plate! Tramadol dose same as dogs? 2mg/kg? We only have the 50mg capsules, I think I may have to do some dilution maths, my favourite!

I suppose long story short:

Ga, rads +/- bloods, or euthanasia if not responding to meloxicam.

You could try tramadol as an alternative, Whats the diet like, it sounds as though this may be implicated here.

Goodluck
