Jan, we should ask Dr. Bird about his salivary glands and also about, once his bite wounds are completely healed, if there are any medications to treat neuro probs- we didn't get into that the day of vet visit because right now it is unknown if this is muscular or neuro or both. First thing is to treat the anemia from severe blood loss and wounds. but I'm thinking, later, if there is no change in his ability to eat, we will be asking about the next step for this guy and it will get expensive- Dr. Bird mentioned what, ultrasound or MRI? I don't remember because I was focused on the right now of the holes in his head!!! Do you remember? sonic xray?
