Hello, I know it's been a while since I have participated here but I could really use help.
My guinea pig pickle is on .08ml antibiotics twice daily for an eye infection. I gave him his dose about a half hour ago but it went down wrong and he had been struggling and choking since then. I called the emergency vet but the only one who will see him is two hours away. The vet I spoke with on the phone recommended waiting until morning if possible to bring him to a close vet, she thinks the stress from a long car ride Will make breathing harder for him and was doubtful he would survive it.
I am so scared and guilty feeling. Has anyone experienced this? Any advice? He is eating fine still.
Thank you.
