He is so tiny, they all just loved him, for now she gave him Optimmune in a low dose to see how it does since he is so small. And an eye lubricant to keep eye moist. So in 4 weeks must have eye checked to see if any tears are producing if so he will just have to have this medicine in his the rest of his life. She did not think surgury is a good idea as for now, She said sometimes it produces to much tears and it just flows all over their face, she did not seem like they had not quite perfected this tecnoligy quite so well yet. So will take her advice and I believe he will be my dog as time goes on. He is my $1000 BABY!!!! And sweet as hell I might ad. They all wanted to keep him at the vets and the clients too. |
so glad you did this and he has a firm diagnosis - the opthos are amazing - so glad he has some meds to make him feel better
