My Lucky had some blood in urine and pain when defecating. Emergency vet trip showed temp at about the right level, x-rays show a stone and still waiting for urinalysis.
Would not let them do blood work at that stage -- too much stress on both of us. Put on .03 cc of Ciprofloxin (sp?) every 12 hours. Still eating Ok, though having "accidents" , since normally a free-range pig when folks are around (and never has accidents unless gets scared). Seems pretty normal other than small weeps when defecating (breaks my heart)..Other strange things are as follows: chewing a lot on wooden chew toys, translucent skin on ears seems more reddish than usual AND he is eating his poops from the cage as he makes some of them (somehting I've never seen him do before).
I have been a vigilant reader for over 6 years and track the various aliments and symptoms but now I'd like some help !
