Yesterday, I went to the vet with baby Hermy for the blood test. It was terrible. Let me know if it is normal. The tecnician was holding Hermy's head really hard (because Hermy wanted to put his head in his shell) Hermy did the sound he does when he is super scary like 6 or 7 times in a row. After that the tecnician was holding his head in a way that Hermy could not open his mouth. It took like 4 or 5 minutes. After the blood was taken by the vet. the tecnician was still holding Hermy's head to make sure it would stop bleeding. When I looked, Hermy's eyes were out of his head, it was a horrible vision. When she let go of Hermy, he opened his mouth super big to breath for like 2 or 3 minutes. When I got home, I put Hermy in his house and he did not go in his hide right away, he just fell asleep under his light (his 4 legs out) for like 3 hours 
He never sleeps under his light with his 4 legs out if we are in the same room as him, he always wakes up. Now he just woke up and now he is relaxing under his basking light.
Another vet called me last week for the results of the second urine sample, she told me she did not understand why the vet did not make a culture she she sent the urine for a culture. I got the result yesterday, Hermy does not have a bladder infection, he told me he gave Hermy antibiotic for 21 days because he was not sure if he had an infection or not but he wanted to play safe!!! Why did'nt he sent the urine for a culture (it is a more accurate test) Now I am not sure anymore, did I give Hermy antibiotc for nothing!!!! Hermy's urine are still redish, he told me to bring another sample If I wanted to, It cost me 434.00CAD for all this urine thing and maybe it was all normal. The vet will call me with the result today or monday. I cant wait to know if the problem is a renal failure or not? The vet looks like he thinks it is that because apparently there was kidney cell in Hermy's urine again the second time. I will let you know what the resuls are, I will keep my finger crossed.
