    In she inside or out? what was she dosed with, does it cover for fluke, if not i'd recommend a dose of LEVAFAS DIAMOND or ZANIL to cover for both liver and rumen fluke and if that fails take a sample and get it tested, there are several other possibilities including blood scour.

    from experience it can take weeks to get a result, so another dose of zanil would do no harm in the meantime.
