ok thanks so it was the med then that caused it
Jean responded back to me and said she does not understand what they are meaning by the lepto and that antibiotic so you may want to ask what their reasoning is with those two things and I have looked like others on here to see the correlation of the two and have found nothing either. I just emailed the two vet groups I am on today asking this question as well.
The only thing i can come up with is because she had a reaction to lepto she is susceptible to have reactions to other things that are strong meds or vaccines as her system is very sensitive to things. Also from what you describe about her having health issues can leave them susceptible to reactions as I know my dd has reacted to things like simplicef getting hives, metacam, benedryl, etc so i have to be very careful with her as she has a poor immune system hence she has atopic dermatitis and hypothyroid both autoimmune diseases. Maybe this is the case with daisy. Usually if their immune system is not real strong they are susceptible to things more so than a healthy dog so may be why she caught the lyme disease too.
