Question Enlarged heart and flluid in and around lungs?

Has anyone had success in treating a yorkie with an enlarged heart? The pup is only 4 months old and has fluid around the lungs. Breathing is becoming labored. This baby weighs 3 pounds and we are seeing a specialist tomorrow. I hope I can afford to walk thru the door................ugh.
If anyone else has delt with this can you please tell me what the doctors prescribed for your baby.? I have read about Lasix, and the Baytrill that the pup was on for the kennel cough did nothing, and I hear that is a potent antibiotic.......xrays show the little enlarged heart and edema. I am just scared to death and hope to hear a little good news from someone that has gone thru this and had a happy outcome..........?
thanks
