Great news!!!! What your iguana has is what I call...."ring shed" between the spikes and the tail area during shedding times, they need to be watched closely. Extra soakings or even a small amount of vegetable oil applied to the dry skin will help remove it. Most of the time with Lola and Harry soaking in the bath tub will get the skin off.
I would also like to get the information from you about this Vet you found. I've included my email address. I'm working on a website that will list both rescue groups and iguana Vets. Once it is done I will email you so the next time you visit with this Vet, you can pass on the website addy to him. I need the following information about him. Name of Business
Vets. name
City/state
Phone#
Email address if he has one.

Once again I'm glad it wasn't Gangrene and I hope that your iguana gets to keep the tip of his/her tail. Best of luck.
