 spriochete anyone heard of?
so emma has has really bad diareah with tons of mucous in it for 6 days. i had just given her her monthly interceptor heartworm and worm preventative so i thought maybe that was just making it her have the diareah. but since she was still that way today i decided to take her to the vet. after doing a fecal exam they said she had spirochete. which i guess an overgorwth of bacteria and they gave me metronidazole. im supposed to give her one for 6 days.
i searched for it but didnet really come up with much does anyone know anything else about it. is it contageous. i am also worried what if it was something else like giardia or something worse becasue they said if it doesnt get better in 6 days to come back. so it seemed like they might not have been postive that was it. maybe im just overreascting but any help would be awesome. |
