Urgent Care :: My RES can't crawl properly

[industrial_girl_2000]

She was given the shots in the rear legs? Shots should be given in the "armpit" of the front legs due to the possibility of the medicine rushing to the kidneys..... or at least that's what every vet I've taken my turtles to has said and it's been a few.

Ditto. I was told the same thing many yrs ago when I had to take a turtle to the vet for RI issues.

it's injected into her bums.. not her rear legs

They dont have "bums", they have rear legs and then a tail and an anus under the tail. And I'm pretty sure you're not injecting into her anus.

I'd really start looking into a better herp vet, moon. It sounds like your turtle needs more medical care, and I wouldn't trust the opinion of your current vet. A second opinion never hurts.
