Why do you say your vet is reluctant to refer you to a specialist? Have you asked? If you have and he refused, what was his reasoning?
Remember, you are in charge of directing care for your pup. It's fully within your rights to ask for that referral if you feel you aren't getting any where with the current treatment. If your vet continues to balk at the referral, then i would be on the phone with every vet in the area until you find one who is willing to take you on and make the needed referral.
Good luck.
