I've question for anyone who has dealt with Salmonella.

how long did it take on the medication to see any results?

I'm already three days into treatment and Nicodemus still has diarrhea. fortunately he has had any dehydration. I keep checking him, he must think I've gone crazy.

David, I don't know how long it should take before the meds start helping Nicodemus dunno You may want to check with Dr. Jordan to ask if he knows how long it would take with other species confused

I've sent him an email and i will call him this afternoon. I wonder if maybe he's a carrier and this is not what's wrong with him.

I called the vet this afternoon and according to Dr. Jordan sugar gliders are not able to be carriers of Salmonella. I was told that it might take all the way up to the end of the 10 days to see results.

I'm already three days into treatment and Nicodemus still has diarrhea. fortunately he has had any dehydration. I keep checking him, he must think I've gone crazy.

I had two gliders (cage mates) who were diagnosed with having salmonella. Not only did my vet diagnose it, but she sent the fecals off to a lab to be tested and came back with the same results. They were treated 1 week on, 1 week off, 1 week on. At the end of six weeks, they both had clean fecals, two weeks apart for six weeks. That many fecals was MY idea, not my vet. I'm paranoid. LOL!

That's been well over a year ago, so I'm not sure what medicine they were given. I'll check with my vet tomorrow and find out. I think they were on Bactrim but don't hold me to that. They had diarrhea for about a week to 10 days. I pushed pedialyte to keep them from being dehydrated and sub-q'd twice a day. I also gave them an old-fashioned oatmeal flake each day. They got worse before they got better but, they did get better. The female had two joeys IP and they turned out fine.

I have a feeling that Nicodemus has had this for a while, long enough to lose about 30 to 40 grams. but keep in mind he had giardia as well.

But he's gaining weight and is pretty active, he does sleep more than the rest of my crew but for now I'll chalk it up to being sick for so long.

hopefully we've all ready hit the worst of this.

just curious did you have your vet do a C and S? or just the cultures?

David, I am so sorry for your loss. God's blessing of love has taken his frail body away from the pain that he has been living with, and has now brought him home. He's free, living only with the pureness of light which will forever shine in your heart.

My prayers are with you David. hug2

Godspeed precious baby. :rbridge:

I am soooo sorry for your loss of Nicodemus.

There are many strains of Samonellia. Since you had your vet do a C&S the report should have ID'd which type Nicodemus had. Please ask your vet for a copy of the report and also ask him to highlight what type it was.

Also, with a C&S... once the germ is identified... the report also gives a list of meds that the bugs are most sensitive to for proper treatment. This C&S Report will not bring Nicodemus back but it may help give you closure by not leaving so many blanks open as to cause.

Again, I am sorry for your loss.

David,

I am so sorry to hear of little Nicodemus' passing. May your memories of your short time together comfort you in the days to come. Nicodemus knew much love since he came into your life.

David,
We were very sorry to hear of Nicodemus passing over the rainbow bridge. I will forever remember seeing the love you had for him as you held him waiting for the doc. And the faith and love he showed you. He knew he was loved and gave his love back to you. May you always remember the good times and know that he is watching over you for always.
