Re: possible RI
I agree with Joe... Now would be a good time to go to a qualified reptile vet.

Re: possible RI
Raising the temps should help and your animal could have been started on an injection of anti-biotics that will get a start on the infection until the culture sensitivity comes back. Did she take the cultures from the trachea, or just the mouth?
