I can't relax, I feel terrible. I'm checking on her every 5 minutes, I will not be getting any sleep tonight!!!!!
so sorry here is some info on the drug he gave you - what was the antibiotic shot? was it this? I personally do not like shots as they are way stronger than pills lasting a long time in system

Convenia

Sulfamethoxazole and Trimethoprim Antibiotic Tablets For Cats and Dogs - 1800PetMeds

you need to get her to drink though food is not as critical but water is critical -- check her gums to make sure not sticky if sticky go to er as that is dehydration.

take some ice cubes to get her to lick them and you can get some low sodium organic broth at whole foods make some ice cubes have her lick that and see if she will drink more water after as it has sodium to entice water consumption
