Well...she isn't doing so well now...I calledthree vets this morning and they all say surgery is the only way if theworms have gotten inside of her back...I found a entrance wound in herback last night that we hadn't seen before and some blackspotting...I'm sure they are in her back now...she is uncomfortable andI'm wondering if I should just have her put to sleep..I've been prayingfor her, but it would take a miracle for sure to save her now..I'mreally upset..I can't stand watching her suffer, but not sure if shemight survive too...I just don't know...she sits quietly most of thetime..but she is really tired...she still eats and drinks and goespotty ok..

Thanks for all the prayersand concern....you all are the best!

Well..she isstill with us..still eating and drinking and coming out of her cage andlaying next to me by the computer...I guess I'm just going to wait itout and see if maybe I was wrong about the worms in her back...I founda black bug crawling on her last night but it was too quick for me tocatch..I'm thinking maybe it's fleas or a tick or something likethat...I'm keeping my fingers crossed that maybe that bug caused theblack marks on her back and the little wound...if that is thecase..then maybe she will be ok...We are trying to rid her of thatpest..only seen one so far...I'm hoping and praying for the best...Theblack marks are right on the line with her spine though which makes methink I'm probably right about the worms ...I don't want to be rightthis time...if you know what I mean...I pray I'mwrong..

I am so sorry to here that, my vet told me about this the first time we went there,

She told me one cause is that if a bunnies teeth get to long, it can'tclean itself so it gets a dirty bum and flies lay eggs there!!!

But seeming your rabbit is eating ok, it must be something else, now i know this i am checking every day.

By the sound of it, none have got in, they usually cry out in pain so she may be ok, i'll pray very hard!!!
 
Update...she isstill with us...she hasn't been crying out or anything like thatyet...she just lays by me at the computer..lol! She still scratches herears though because we haven't been able to get that nasty bug thatplagues her..I think she must have had that for a long time...we didn'tsee it though at first because we never thought to check her fur whenwe got her...She's all stretched out on the floor lookingdepressedbecause I'm typing instead of petting her..lol!!Let's continue to pray..maybe she will pull out ofthis...

GB!
