Is she back in the tank? Swimming, eating, basking, pooping?

another vet gave me amoxicillin to treat my turtle, the way of medication is the same with the previous, crush 1/8 of 500mg amoxicillin caplet, and dissolve it with 200 cc of water, and let the turtle in the water for about 1-5 minutes.

my turtle now gasp more often ._.

and she haven't eat since yesterday too,
