I totally understand throwing out the bottles, but when I posted you hadn't said what the meds were, it was reasonable to assume more than one was an antibiotic. You didn't think so and made a snarky comment about me needing to re-read my posts.
What I would have done is when people started asking what meds and tests were done was call my vet and ask to pick up the records, or at least ask what meds she had given.
If my dog were sick I'd be thrilled to have experienced people give a second opinion, and I'd give them all the necessary information. I've had dogs my entire life and have been through some health problems with them, but I know nothing compared to some members.
The main thing that bothers me is I feel like you're being way too passive with Cody's care. You need to know exactly what's being done and why and you need to do as much research as you can on your own. He's also suffered long enough, this problem needs to be taken care of ASAP. The best way to do that is to go to a specialist, you should contact one now because you might have to wait for an appointment.
I know how hard having IBS and being severely anemic *among other things* is on me, and I'm a lot bigger and understand more than a poor dog.
Please answer me this, is he anemic?
