Im sorry I did't mean to come off sounding like a jerk....I just worry so many people post horrible vidoes here (like som guy put his baby rat in a microwave) Just from the description I thought you meant the las hour of her life...my deepest apololgies and Im glad she is better : )
Betsy was horribly sick when I got her from the pet shop...I cured it with a dropper of O.J. with a drop of oil of oregano in it and steam treatments. You boil some water and put it in a cup set it inside a small cage with the rat and hold the rat still so it doesn't get burned and then put a towel over the cage for 15-20 minutes a couple times a day.....it worked.
She was never sick after that.
I know you're not supposed to give them OJ (lycopene) but I did.

She probably has mycoplasma.

Mycoplasma is a bacteria present in all rats sinuses. If the rat as a lowered immune system this over populates and causes Upper respitory infections.
The symptoms of that are sneezing, porphorin, and wheezing.
This was a neurological illness that will stay with this baby for life. She is being treated with the same drugs used on people with epilepsy.
