need advice for a pet female rat

Question
hi! i have a female pet rat of about 2 yrs.. i am very worried for her.. she's been going sick & i have no idea what to do. there are no doctors who treat rats so can't consult them. You are the only hope i am left with.. she used to be very sociable & playful but now she's only lethargic & detests company these days & she has lost considerable amount of weight as she rejects to eat anything, even her favorite foodstuff doesn't interest her now.. whenever i touch her, she feels warmer than usual.. she breathes very slowly n shallow sometimes.. when i go to her cage, at first she's not even aware of my presence but when i touch her, she jumps over my hand & sits on my shoulder & refuses to return... please help me.. i have been trying to feed her with different foods but to no avail. i don't want to lose her for any folly n my side. please guide me what to do.. thanks a lot in advance..

Answer
It sounds like your girl has pnuemonia, a secondary infection of Mycoplasmosis. Since there are no vets to help you I would really like it if you joined my Holistarat group and we can give you on-going help for her. Google Holistarat, we are at the top of the page. I'll be waiting to accept your application.
