My bearded dragon is anemic with low blood count. What can I do?

Question

My bearded dragon is anemic, high uric acid and glucose. She has low blood count. Is there anything I can do for her? Any foods, probiotics, antibiotics, fluids, or treatment that can be done to help her? Please help and thanks so much. She is my best friend and I don't want to lose her.

Thanks for reaching out about Trudy and including images. The blood work does not indicate kidney problems as uric acid and potassium are not elevated. Severely anemic. A transfusion is recommended but you still need to determine where to blood loss is from, possible gastrointestinal. Endoscopy, parasite exam, intestinal/fecal cultures might be needed. Trudy should be hospitalized. Good luck.
