I’m sorry to read about everything you and your rabbit are going through. It is clear you care so much and are not hesitant in taking action to figure out how to help him. I can’t offer knowledge from experience with the medical conditions you describe specifically, but in terms of working with a rabbit mystery, I can relate.

I have found it helpful to occasionally step back and consider symptoms and signs in isolation. Sometimes I got overwhelmed by thinking about everything at once, considering timing, context, environment, etc. and that can restrict what are potential options. It’s something I definitely did not intend, but I know sometimes I would accidentally over-complicate things in my mind and it would make me very stressed. Posting here can be a great sounding board and keeping open communication with your vet as well.

Lastly — one day at a time! I’m sure you’re constantly thinking about quality of life weeks and months from now, but it can sometimes be relieving to stay in the moment as well 🙂

Best wishes to you and your rabbit!!
