Thank you both for your replies!

I'm looking over the records now and I've got a call in to the dermatologist so I can ask some questions.

Here's what I see

Cytology - Skin Impression
Skin Scraping
Fungal Culture
Convenia Injection

The convenia injections were given on at least 1 other occasion, possibly 2, and another skin impression was taken for "re-evaluation".

Wylie's Mom, thank you for your reply! They haven't put her on any of those, haven' told us to give her an antihistamine, and haven't had us give her fish oil pills.

When the vet derm calls me I will ask them about all of that, if you can think of anything else to ask, please tell me. Thank you so much.

Pstinard, we take her for walks but otherwise she doesn't like to be outdoors much. We don't have many mosquitos here and the fleas seem to be under much better control. Thank you so much for your help.

Thanks everyone. I'll be better informed once I speak with the vet and I'll post what she says here if you all don't mind.
