sick iguana help!!!

[Shadowface]

I have a 2-1/2yr old iguana and she is very!!! sick and where I live there
is not a vet around to see her. She started being very agressive and not
at all like herself. She started biting and would come at you if you tried
to get close. She would run from me and once I got her she would try to
bite. This is a 180 on the way she has always been. Before she would ride
to stores with me and sit on shoulder the entire time and would let other
pet on her. But now she has taken a big turn for the worst, she has
started having seizures and not eating and now trimbling and now in the
past hour she has lost her strength to do anything and has stopped
breathing twice after a seizure. Now it like she is giving up. It looks
like the MBD that iguana's get but I am not sure. I need some Help !!!!!!
In anyway!!!!! Please Reply if you can help. Thanks and keep her in your
heart. Shadowface.

Sorry about the sick ig, I can't really offer any help, but make sure she
is hydrated.

is she eating at all? if she is, put extra calcium supplement in her
foods, if she isnt, make sure she stays hydrated, giver her a nice long
(warm!) bath, and see if that helps, it may help to bump up her temp.s
a bit, keeping them warm is really important
