So he treated her for Lyphant, and after a month a a half of trying different foods for weeks at a time she started looking great, so we reduced the Pred and Metro and thats when it all started up again. The Bloody stools. He then said she needs to be seen by a specialist and I want her to have a Biopsy after all the nesse. test are run. We didnt even get to run all the test because after the TLI TEST the next day we had the Sonogram and that told the Whole story. This is not easily diagnosed. For one thing how many dogs have you heard of getting a fungus like this.Out of all the dogs that live on the street why mine. I have 6 and only one get this. Her Immune system must be weaker. Thats the whole story in a nut shell. I dont eat meat and try not to buy leather products, and live in health food stores but I know when medicine is needed. I love the Coconut oil and milk. But she needs to get rid of this fungus that is killing her then after that I will help build her Immune system back up. Thanks for all your concern, I know you try and have been thru so much with your babies. |
thanks i agree needs to get rid of this for sure just like my dd with her staph i had to bite the bullet and do the clindamyacin even though i am afraid of hives and vomitting I had to do it but i also know i need to keep her on those two things now as she had no issues for 2 years while on them as she has a poor immune system. Dogs with poor immune systems are prone to getting bizarre things that no other dogs get it is sad but this breed tends to have alot of immune issues and i think it is due to the inbreeding that goes on with them as just like humans if we inbred them they would be jacked up too - very sad as it is not fair to these dogs nor the owners that go through it because of poor breeding. Then most end up in rescue because of it as owners cannot afford it or they put the dog down.
I hope she gets over this quickly
