Today, my vet told me that Pinkerton's E. cuniculi (E.C.) titer count is on the high end of the moderate range. (Until today, I didn't realize that E.C. test results are separated into "low," "moderate," and "high" ranges.)
My vet wants to talk to another exotics-only vet before proceeding but said she'll likely go ahead with E.C. treatment without another titer test. (She knows my DH and I have already broken the bank in the New Year and said she doesn't see the need for us to do another titer test, since Pink's current E.C. count is reasonably high and he has certain symptoms.)
I just wish my vet would consider doing empirical treatment on Emma, too; it seems that she's not comfortable trying--even though she once told me she could do a de-worming treatment on Emma due to all her (Emma's) stasis issues. Now, she seems to lean toward the idea of requiring an E.C. for Emma, too. My thought? If E.C. is present--even if it's not "easy" to transmit--I'd feel better if Panacur treatment were given for both buns at the same time.
Please send prayers and positive vibes that Pinkerton is one of the lucky ones whose body fights and overcomes E.C.
Thank you,
