Oh sorry! Just now saw this! Well, to make a long story short-ish.....she had surgery in November on her eggs that were bound....made it through that. Her RI came back and we're still fighting that. Her tail issues have spread and stopped about a little over halfway up her tail. Vet thinks it is...

The shots seem to be really clearing out up! Her stomatitis is also nearly gone! She's drinking like crazy from a syringe, so that's good! Still hand feeding though. Weight is the same, maybe a bit less. My scale isn't quite as accurate as the vet's, so I can't be totally sure. Tail is the...

I have 3 more shots left. Last will be January 8th. Her next appt is the 20th. Couldn't go any sooner because of work obligations. So far she's seeming a lot better, but her toe is a little swollen and she doesn't want to bear weight on it so she mostly scoots. Tail is the same. No change...

The shots are yes. Not the serrapeptase, but she does k ow about it. She had never heard of it so I explained it to her and she was very interested in it and said things ending in "tase" or something like that usually help with swelling and inflammation, but wasn't sure about the mucous aspect...

Yes, I hope so too on the tail. It still hasn't progressed anymore in 2 weeks, nor has it fallen off. As a matter of fact, the gray line appears to be lightening up. Either that or I've been staring at it too much and it's just wishful thinking. ? I think it was a total of 7 shots of ceftazidime...

Quick question, is using serrapeptase counter intuitive when giving ceft injections (every 3 days) for pneumonia? I have been and now I'm thinking....if the meds are supposed to dry it up, but the serrapeptase thins it.....is that cancelling it out or no?

Oh, hey! Yes, well, 2 vet visits last week, and they switched her to antibiotic shots and convinced me to wait on her tail. They said it looked more like an injury to the tail than a true "infection". And she was worried if we cut it off now she would have anesthesia issues with the RI still in...

Beard still looks weird. Also, now those soft scales have hardened......and that part of her tail is stiff too.....I'm calling the vet asap tomorrow, but just giving an update.

Here's the best pictures I could get of her tail today. The dent I'm referring to is slightly noticable here, but none really do the dent justice. And the dent, for reference, is exactly where the 2 weird scales are located in the next picture. I'm beginning to think this is from stuck...
