OT—sorry to go OT so early—but im concerned about hubby—and this may make male lizards unconfortable— but- here goes—he was supposed to have a kidney stone blasted next monday—no biggie as BFV wife had it done—on his pre-op check last week, they out him on a sulfa based antibio which he started on mon—took about 6 doses— tues earle am he woke up and his penis and balls were swollen prple itchy and when he touched them, the skin started to peel off! omg— it was horrible! so- dr said it was allergic reaction-duh—put him another antibiotic yesterday—was supposed to see dermatologist today but we had a blizzard—so now hes been on keflex for 1 1/2 days and now his toungue is sore—no swelling or difficulty breathing—but JEEZ!

I’m not a doctor.
but I’ve heard of the skin-peeling reaction, and it is rare but very serious allergic reaction.
The tongue soreness sounds like it MIGHT be a continuation of allergic reaction - call your doctor NOW.
