Sugar has been wheezing for almost 3 weeks. She wheezes when she inhales and when she exhales. Often she also sounds like she is gargling.
After 2 weeks of this, I took her in to the vet (last Wednesday.) She is on Clavamox to fight a possible sinus infection. But it does not seem to be getting any better.
The vet said our next options are: x-ray, running a tube up her nose; MRI. All of these require anesthesia. Most likely, she has inhaled something, or took something in her mouth and then inhaled it up rather than swallowing it. Could be a blade of grass, a bit of a leaf, whatever.
I was really hoping the antibiotics would do the trick. I don't like ANY of the next options!
Several weeks prior to all this, Sugar was doing the "reverse sneeze," but that had all cleared up and we had at least a week possibly 2 weeks with no issues at all.
Has anyone dealt with something like this? I don't even know what questions to ask the vet!
