thank you for your concern with my dog. he was given a steroid injection and antibiotics. The bleeding has stopped and the smell has disapeared from his eyes. I was asked to monitor how much he drinks per day (approx 450mls). yesterday and today he has been very lethargic. we have an apt tommorow teatime with the vet. He has lost almost another pound and appetite is poor! I will update yous as soon as i possibly can x

Best of luck lLMB.... I read your thread.... Hugs for you & doggy from me xxxxx
I know that you know that, unless the vet can make a definite and treatable diagnosis, he hasn't got long left.

I wish you both the best of luck for tomorrow -

thankyou cant stop crying. Apt 4.40 today. Im seeing the vet who I feel is able to help me reach the right decision. who am I to decide if he lives or dies. so upsetting. Every time I leave the house I worry about him........ is he in pain......is he fretting for me and his dad. My hubby puts all of his trust in me to make the right decision because of my nursing backround. so painful and difficult x
Your nursing background would in no way prepare you for this. It is such a hard decision to make, but it will be a relief afterwards. You will know for certain that he is in no pain.

All the best for this afternoon.
sending you a hug , have no words of wisdom that can make you feel better , but know what you are going through and my thoughts are with you xxx
so sorry lovemarkb and thanks for the update. There's hardly a member of AB who hasn't cried buckets and worried over their sick pets or lost animal friends. I do hope your appointment this afternoon has at least given you a view on the best way forward. We're sending you the love.x
Only just seen this ilmb. Thank you so much for posting an update for us. I echo Prudie's comment that hopefully the vet has given you a view on the best way forward. Please let us know how you get on tomorrow afternoon. I do hope you have some better news by this time tomorrow. Big hugs to you, have been there myself and it's so hard. They break our hearts they do. x

oscar seen by vet today. bloods have been taken (lovely big bald patch on front of his neck) results monday or tuesday. Oscars been given a steroid injection to help clear up dermatitis that he has on his do da's. The steroid might also increase his appetite. If bloods come normal the vet is going to put oscar on heart medication for 2 weeks to see if it helps improve his appetite -thus gain weight xx Heart murmur was picked up on our last visit but not a serious one x
Thank you for the update ilmb, does he seem a little better today after his steroid injection? Got everything crossed for good news next week.
