Did she do any tests to check for a collapsed trachea or just diagnose based on what you told her? Never had experience with it, but I'm pretty sure there are tests they do to diagnose this. Lexi sometimes makes a sound (like she has a hairball) after drinking. I think it's a reverse sneeze, but will bring it up with my vet again. I hear so much about collapsed trachea, I think I'm just paranoid!
