Coccidiosis

Hi,
One of my lambs has coccidiosis. I'm not able to get meds from the vet as they are due to come over for the inspection bit before registering on Monday so I'm struggling to get hold of treatment. Just wondering is anyone is the East Sussex area had any available?

Sorry to hear about this, but how do you know it is coccidiosis without being registered with a vet?

Thanks, I've tried local ones but to no avail.
I've worked with sheep for a few years now so I know the symptoms when I see them. However, I have only recently undertaken my own flock so the registering/vet part is new to me!

What are the symptoms?  How old is the lamb?  What is its temperature?  Has it been wormed recently?
