Default Maggie is very sick

On 11/05/10, dh took Maggie to the vet for her routine checkup. He did not know she wasn't supposed to have the Leptospira vaccine, well she got one. She was not herself all week-end and it continued into the week. She was mostly lethargic but she was eating and drinking. Wednesday, she ate very little, Thursday she ate less, by Friday she wasn't eating. Saturday her stools looked like runny black tar. She wasn't eating or drinking, she was very restless, moving from room to room. Sunday (yesterday) I took her to the Emergency Hospital. They did blood work and gave a dx of Gastroenteritis. They gave her fluids, an injection of Cerenia and Famotidine and sent home Metronidazole. She wasn't any better today so I took her to my vet. He did some xrays, and concluded that her intestines were inflammed. He gave her fluids with a B12 shot included and a Centrine injection and sent us home with Clavamox and Panacur. Maggie does not seem any better, she is sleeping, does not bother to get up or even look up if someone comes in the room, etc. Much more lethargic than last week-end. Yes, it has only been a couple of days, am I expecting too much? Is there something else I should be doing? Is any of this related to the vaccine? She doesn't even raise her head off the pillow.
