She actually doesn't have anything interesting to look at, just
minor hair loss on her back legs that look like a bad haircut
Her stomach was a bit pink when we first went to see the derm but it has since cleared up with antibiotics.

This sounds like a fantastic idea, will definitely ask about it. Do you know if it will also suppress food allergies? I guess if she is still itchy on Atopica then I'll know she's allergic to environmental stuff AND food? Ugh, so many variables!

I agree, being on antihistamines for 2 months straight seems excessive, especially when it doesn't seem to improving the situation.
