It was me that posted about a second snake - that was a mistake based on the name of another thread you had started about a plush ball python. I apologize for that.
Folks here are passionate. Sometimes it comes across as harsh. We are not attacking you. If you consider it an attack, it's because you're defensive. Defensiveness comes from being bullish, from not wanting to take advice being given or see yourself in a critical light. It's time to stop being defensive, time to take a look in the mirror and start making changes.
You don't want to stress him out, yet you were moving him around and holding him down and messing with everything before finally moving him to another room. He's already stressed out. Might as well fix it all NOW. But okay... maybe you took that advice to leave him alone so I'll drop that one. You also claim that this snake is your world, that you love him more than anything, yet driving 3.5 hours to a vet is more than you can do? Putting a vet bill on a credit card to make sure your animal is more than you can do?
And that comment about work... We all work. We all make time for what's important.
