Thanks Pat 
, well everything seems to be fine! (apart from my bank balance 
)
We had a conscious xray (I knew I would be fretting without one!) result: no blockage, no bladder stones (BIG YEY!), and all they could see was a tiny bit of gas but certainly not full on bloat. (I did ask what they could miss with it being a conscious xray and she said only a tiny stone hidden behind the spine but its highly unlikely).
I got some zantac and probiotic. I am to continue with the metoclop along with zantac (0.2ml twice daily for 3 days) and the priobiotic for 5 days. I'm to discontinue the anti-inflam/pain relief (loxicom) for now, as she says... he is just so bright and lively! If he looks under the weather at all, to start it again.
AND......I syringed the zantac, and put him back in his cage and low and behold 10 poos in less than 5 mins! I think hes doing it on purpose
I discussed him potentially eating them and she thought this was very unusual but possible..so suggested I try and observe him for a long time to see, I do watch him a lot and not seen so far....she wants me to call her monday to update her.
So all good news that is for sure today, and like I said he couldnt be cheekier at the moment, as along with all this, having only had him 4 weeks hes really coming out of his shell, hes worth every penny
|) thank you for every ones advice, esp Pebble xoxo and any further advice always appreciated! In fact how to ensure he gets the probiotic of which I have powder (lactoB), would be great! I sprinkled it on his veg but not convinced I got it all on there!
