Kelly - where did you get your little one from - did the vet give you a firm diagnosis?

Sorry you have lost your tortoise.
I am not sure your vet knew what they were talking about, as from the syptoms you told us about, it was obvious it was either upper repiratory infection, or RNS.
If you ever have to use a vet again, then in 99% of cases the vitemin jab is almost useless.
