Thank you for your reply, ladyjane. I had no idea there was a specialist here in city. Perhaps this is who my vet consulted to get the diagnosis? I will have to ask him. No point in doubling up if this has already been done.
Yes, where the rash is the skin is hot and the fur is greatly thinned from just 4 days ago. But on the whole last night I'd have to say she was less fidgety than she was last week. She just does all that nose whistling and that concerns me because I don't want her to be in pain. Does cutaneous vasculitis hurt?
She would not eat last night but only drank water. Her poor leg where the IV was has a stiff bit of skin high up on the foreleg and a nasty hole at her knee. It must've been a big catheter. She wouldn't stop licking it.
I have to give her medicine with food. I fear I'll have to syringe it in if she won't eat on her own. Sadly this stuff has chicken liver in it and I know chicken was giving her a rash two weeks ago that didn't look quite this bad, but was still a rash, so I was worried the food had made her this way.
I don't know if they measured her protein levels. Would that show up on an abaxis blood test?
Can you please tell me more about CV ladyjane? Jenna cannot tolerate steroids. Will the pentoxifylline take care of this alone? Should Jenna be receiving something for pain or anxiety because she is a little stressball right now and I don't know for certain what is causing it. She also can't handle metacam.
Thank you.
