Hi guys-- wanted to let you know I took Miriam to the vet this am-- he was able to get a tiny bit of feces, and she is LOADED with flagellates-- over-loaded, is how he put it. He's not sure if that's the whole problem, but, we are going to start there. I actually have to take her back tonite for treatment as he had to have time to figure out the dose, because she is so tiny (just under 4 grams). I'm going to take Mordecai in as well, since they live together.

I feel so stupid... why the hell didn't I check a fecal earlier... I truly hope this is the main problem and we can get her back on track.

Check fecals, guys. I know we will always have parasites to deal with, but we should have a good deworming protocol in place to prevent overloads like this. I just hope I didn't wait too long.
