How much longer does Teddy have with the ivermectin? Is his eye improving?
He has one more week. His eye is not completely healed yet. Presumably, I have to go in again to have him "checked" so that the vet can tell me that the mites are still not gone (which I know because his eye is still not back to normal) and get another round of the medicine. I read online that this might take up to two months to clear up on its own which I already figured...but I'm just afraid this medication is too taxing on his system. At first he had diarrhea...which I told the vet about but he said to just wait and see if it gets better (it did after a week) I was told to continue the treatment which I have and now he's vomiting and his gums... I just don't know.
