I always wanna make sure that I'm doing more harm than good.
I hope you're able to find some solutions with your vet. In the end, we ended up going to a Vet Derm and they are AMAZING, but pricey...but well worth it for us. You may want to ask about Atopica and Temaril P. Atopica is fantastic especially if they're affected most of the whole year. Whereas TemP and steroids can be more appropriate for shorter seasonal issues. Like here in AZ, we have pollens all over, all year, some months worse than others - but bc of this Marcel needs Atopica.

I also did allergy testing with Marcel and he gets a custom concoction to desensitize his system to those allergies.
