[QUOTE="SweetsDollface, post: 1139644, member: 22481"] He did not check her for Johne's. That was my concern as well, but all of my reading said the same. Usually they develop symptoms later in life. He told me that she had bottle jaw from parasites. I have wormed her 3 times since January. But apparently I need to do it far more frequently. I wormed her with ivomec, orally and so did he, 5 days apart. He told me to get Cydectin pour on. I as well did that. When he came out this past Sunday, he said she was just weak from the worming. The parasites made her anemic and weak. I think I should have waited a month or so to put the Cydectin on her. Sunday was an awful day. She was so weak.her legs just buckled under her. Today was the first day I went out to run errands. I myself lifted her this morning with tow straps at 6am. I used the fence as leverage. She weighs about 350lbs. I was shocked when I got home around 1pm, she was still up. She is up as we speak. I have been giving her electrolytes 2 quarts at a time. All day. Called the vet this morning, he told me to buy Renew Gold and add it to her feed, a cup, 3 times a day. And ounce of honey 3 times a day.
