Im sooooo sorry to hear about your baby. My little girl has the same condition. They said it wasnt bad enough to do surgrey. They told me no collars, which i have never used from the beginning, i love the harness, and so does she. But im keeping an eye on it.......
To answer your question up above, the vet hasnt advised me of any medications just yet, I think they are just keeping a close eye on it......
