Hello there!
I'm sorry to hear about your leopard gecko's diagnosis. It can be understandably distressing to navigate this situation, but I'm here to help guide you through some steps that might provide comfort for your little buddy.
Firstly, ensuring a stress-free and calm environment is crucial. Try to maintain a consistent temperature and humidity in their habitat – leopard geckos typically thrive with temperatures between 75-85°F (24-29°C) during the day and slightly cooler at night. Proper humidity around 20-40% can also support their comfort.
Nutrition is another key focus. Offering a variety of gut-loaded insects and ensuring adequate hydration is important, but consider smaller, more frequent feedings if your gecko's appetite has waned.
It's essential to keep a watchful eye on your gecko's behavior. If you notice changes like significant weight loss, lethargy, or difficulty breathing, these could indicate that the condition is worsening and might need immediate veterinary attention.
Although it's a challenging time, considering a video consult with Dial A Vet can provide you with ongoing support, advice specific to your gecko's situation, and peace of mind that you're doing everything possible to care for them.
Remember, you're not alone in this, and we’re here to support both you and your gecko every step of the way.

Real questions, vet reviewed answers and quality care.
It was so easy, I needed some eye drops for my dog and thinking about going to the vet on a weekend made me nervous about the cost involved. Dial A Vet was a much simpler, cheaper option with faster results. Within 10 minutes of the call, I had the medicine I needed for my dog without an expensive consultation.
A great fast efficient service with a qualified vet who was lovely and helpful. Thank you Samantha. I was able to sort my dog at 6pm on a Sunday night for $49 - amazing. Highly recommend.

What an amazing service, at my wits end as I knew my beautiful dog had an ear infection, could not get into the vet for 4 days. Never knew there was vets online until I googled. Within 15 minutes on a Sunday I was taking to beautiful Samantha who diagnosed and treated our Jasper. Only $49. She trusted that we knew our boy and gave us lots of advice. I will definitely be using dial a vet every time and sharing with all my friends and family. Absolutely fantastic kind caring service. 11/10
