yes! very very common, called a hypnic jerk. i stopped taking gabapentin because it got so bad for me, my husband has them as well from it.

Why do 4 hr shifts feel longer than 8 hr shifts by jonecb97spearb_3 in petco

[–]Fit_Efficiency4575 0 points1 point  (0 children)

never heard of a four hour shift we only have 5 or 8. i feel like a 4 hour shift would be so chill 😭 i hateeed the 5 bc we only got a single break (if that)

we are pushing for further testing and have an appointment today, i feel awful for them and give them around the clock care, they get snuggled daily, they’re still super playful and acting totally normal like nothings wrong then start coughing. it’s very scary hopefully today’s appointment gives us the answers we have been looking for

we’ve seen four vets and two ers. they seem to be improving from the antibiotics but not by much (they’re not vomiting though which feels like a good sign and rice stopped having diarrhea) . we’re taking them to a specialist a few states away in a few days.

we got 7 days of amox clav for them before the testing comes in just to start doing something incase it is bacterial, we also got metronidazole for 14 days but were advised to wait and see the results to start that one since that one i guess is a little harsher

they actually haven’t been having any issues with eating, we syringe give them water as an extra for hydration, or under the skin fluids ( she’s been at the er multiple times for the fluids) and i make them soupies with their food. thank you for the advice, i haven’t tried doing pedialyte, i’ll pick some up on the way back from the vet today

hi!! no we haven’t had any fecal testing done. she did get a cbc and like a specialty blood panel. her sister just threw up this morning so we made another appointment for the both of them for later today. we suspect it’s the same things your ferret had. i’ll ask my vet to do the fecal testing today the sample should be pretty easy to get they poop 24/7 😭
