[QUOTE="regolith, post: 758138, member: 9267"] Too many possibilities with those symptoms - a vet casting an eye over her or running a blood test can be helpful. I could list cows that showed symptoms as you describe and what was wrong with each of them, if we found the cause and there'd be a dozen different possibilities ranging from milking well through pneumonia, liver damage, treatable scours, dicky heart, Johnes, in one case the cow had a broken rib and was in pain and hence not eating... I don't disagree with giving her a shot of antibiotics because provided you give her enough to start with, if she then improves at least you know what fixed it. Painkiller often works wonders too.
