My first post; because of fear

I hear you Reckless and I figured with as much personal research you were trying to do yourself, a vet might not be a possibility. We went 8 years here without a vet that would look at goats. You would call one, they would say we dont see goats but try this next vet. Call that one and that vet would say the same thing and tell you to try the vet you had just talked to who told you to talk to this one. And then there is the vet that doesnt have a clue about goats... so dangerous. They often mess things up worse.

Talked to my other half and she had this to say

Penicillin isnt going to do much. You need LA 200 or even better/ best Nuflur. These are stronger and faster acting antibiotics. And you will need to give it to her for 3 shots total, 1 every other day for the Nuflur. One time with the penicillin isnt even close to enough. Thats a 10-14 day ordeal but it really doesnt do anything for pneumonia. It does sound like it could be pneumonia but it could be brought on by low blood mineral levels. What kind of loose mineral are you using. The weak muscle could be white muscle disease (deficient in selenium and vit E.) If she is deficient, that could make her more likely to catch other illnesses and opens her up to parasites.
