However, the exact nature of her health issues remains a subject of speculation among historians and medical experts, as detailed records from that time are limited.

Is a goldfish ill or pregnant if all of its belly is big and scales are sticking up?

When a goldfish becomes bloated in appearance and all the scales start sticking up then the fish has dropsy, a terminal condition. Dropsy is the result of a build-up of fluids caused by organ failure. The reason for the symptoms of dropsy is either an internal bacterial infection or poor water quality. By the time the fish starts to have raised scales there's nothing else you can do for it - so don't waste your time or money on the types of medications you add to the water that say they "cure" dropsy-they'll only burn the fishes gills and make its last few days on earth even more miserable.
