Curious Condition

A friend of mine has a 2 month old baby Albino Leo that is not acting nor looking quite right and we would value any input from
your collective experience in keeping geckos.
The baby has what can be described as a flat liquid pocket in it's abdomen. It is inside the animal not subcutaneous.
She is being hand fed at this time and was just separated from her tank mates as the condition was just noticed so we are not sure if she is pooping or not yet,
She has been given a course of parazap and is active and alert.
Has anyone ever seen a water type pocket inside a geckos belly.
There is no heat rock being used just the usual under the tank heater and none of her tank mates have this problem.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Sandy

Hi I am the owner of this gecko in question here.I just got home and checked on her so far she has not pooped. it also looks like the water pocket or fluid has gotten bigger.I am afraid she is either going to die or that fluid pocket will rupture killing her.The nearest vet that is an actual knowledgeable reptile vet is in the city.I will be calling him in the morning.I am just really worried I have never seen this before.her other tank mated seem fine.No problems all eating well and growing.This one is active when I go to pick her up and put my hand in the tank but otherwise just sleeps.Which I guess is normal because they are nocturnal mainly.Anyone have any ideas?
Thank you in advance
Robin

How far west/east are you? If you're on the nassau border, there's an excellent exotic animal vet that works at the New Hyde Park Animal Hospital.

I guess its a good sign for me, that his name has slipped my mind.
