Default Please Help Me....

My little girl, Lulu, is 10 months old. One evening, she started vomiting. I panicked a little, since she only weighs 3 lbs, but I also wrote it off as stress. When she didn't stop, I took her to the vet. The vet put her on Pepcid and low GI food, and told me we'd have to move onto X-rays and blood work if she didn't get better.

The vomiting stopped, but then she started having diarrhea. Constantly. She went so much she started having blood in her stool. I took her back to the vet. He said the blood work and X-rays looked normal and prescribed Panacur and .25mg of Amoxicillin every 12 hours for 10 days.

I started both prescriptions, but stopped after 1 dose of Panacur because she threw up. She's still taking the Amoxicillin, but seems really tired and not quite like herself. She'll play every once in awhile, but it seems like she wants to sleep more than usual. We called the vet, who said the amoxicillin shouldn't make her tired, so now I'm even more nervous.

In addition, I tried to lift her tail today to wipe her, and she started crying....which has me wondering on top of this all if she just sprained her tail.

At this point, all I want is for her to feel better, and I feel like I'm not helping her at all.

Does anyone have any input on this? Is there something I should be doing to help Lulu?
