We all use driftwood around here ... picked up straight from the ocean. We also soak it in a weak bleach solution and have never had a problem of any sort. However, that doesn't mean it couldn't cause problems. If my iguana was that sick at the same time - I'd get the driftwood out ASAP too, as a precautionary measure. Who knows what may lurk in there, a bleach resistant parasite?? Ineffective batch of bleach? You just don't know for certain, so we don't take chances.
How had he been pooping before today?
Best of luck at the vet's - let us know the diagnosis.
