Poor boys. Get well soon sweeties as mummy is very worried and loves you so much.
 
Awww sending lots of love and healing vibes .... feel better soon little ones!

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
 
Aw, so sad to see them poorly :(
Sending lots of gentle hugs from us all here to you and your lovely boys x>>

GET WELL SOON x
 
As well as critical care Yoshi did sit with Moonpig and eat his way through ( albeit very slowly ) a few handfuls of grass so I was relieved to see that, but that really is all I can tempt him with at the moment. I'll get some parsley tomorrow too.
 
awww sending some lovely healing vibes for your boys hon, hope they are feeling better soon xx
 
Oh bless them :( sending them all my healing vibes for today and lots of cuddles and chin rubs - a hug for you too! x

Yes, it's very confusing, I've had to pin up a meds chart of who's getting what and when, I couldn't get my head around it any other way with all the different amounts and time intervals! @)
 
Tons of hugs coming their way from me and the milhaven piggies, big hugs for you too x
 
Awwww, poor little ones, healing vibes their way and big hugs for you.

Hope they feel better soon, it's really hard when you get more than one ill at the same time. Hoping they get well soon x
 
An update:
More waiting and seeing. :{
Vicki isn't in until Friday so we saw a different vet today. He doesn't think Wally's eye can be saved and will need to come out. 8...
There's not many vets in this week and as he's on antibiotics he should be fine until Friday apparently when Vicki's back and can operate. I'm still holding out a tiny hope that his eye could get better after seeing a load of pictures on Guinea Lynx about a guinea pig who had a ruptured eye, it looked hopeless like Wally's but when the scab came off it looked like it was healing. Anyway, we'll see how it's looking Friday, he's getting about fine and is eating okay now too.
He couldn't come up with any concrete diagnosis for Yoshi's current illnesses and found loads of new lumps ( that weren't there on Thursday ) so I'm not a happy Mummy. I don't think he's well enough to go through an exploratory, he's far to weak for a G.A. We've decided to see how he goes on the Septrim, Critical Care and probiotics and I managed to get him some Metacam too to make him a bit more comfortable. This seems to have helped because it's been a battle all weekend syringe feeding him ( he really isn't interested ) but after he'd had some Metacam he must have felt a bit more comfortable because he did manage to get quite a bit of Critical Care mixed with baby food ( banana & mango, he likes the flavour ) down, well, more than the last few days anyway. He snuggled up on my chest, all propped up with pillows ( seemed to ease his breathing ) and let me finger stroke his nose and cheek and dozed comfortably for a couple of hours. I'm glad he got some relief but I'm not kidding myself about where things could go. 8...
So it's more watching, waiting and intensive caring.... and lots more positive vibes please. x
 
Update bump

I've just taken some photos of Wallace's eye, will add them to this thread at some point today in case anyone else has had similar eye problems with their pigs.
Yoshi doesn't seem to be suffering with laboured breathing anymore ( although his usual noises when I pick him up sound raspier than usual, the vet did say he had a bit of fluid on his lungs but he couldn't hear a heart murmur) but he's still completely off his food and just wants to hide and sleep.
 
Sorry you, Wally and Yoshi are having such a rough time. Hope the medication starts to kick in and maybe they will eat a bit more.... Lots of good wishes
 
Thanks for the updates, was thinking about your boys on the bus to work this morning.. Really hope things start to improve for them both x x

Thanks me too, thankfully Wally is eating now but Yoshi is showing no interest. I managed to get him to have a few ml of critical care & baby food this morning but not enough. Will try again in about an hour. x
