Poor Mandy...

[chocolatepuppy]

*update* on Mandy: When I got home from work yesterday, Mandy was a mess. She had rubbed her snout almost raw and chewed a spot on her tail. We have her on a prescription antihistamine now for her allergies. I was suppose to give her one in the a.m. to start. At 4:00 a.m. I thought I gave her one, I found the pill in the peanut butter jar when I went to give her her antibiotic. (I give her peanut butter on bread to give her her pills) That means she has had no anti itch help for over 24 hours but she's doing fine, no chewing or scratching. It could be because of the colder weather. Last Friday when it was colder she had a good day then too. So I started her on the pills, just to be safe.
I hope this is the end of it for her, she has been miserable for quite awhile. The skin infection seems to be gone, it's seems to be her allergies we're dealing with now.
Thanks again to everyone who has kept Mandy in their thoughts and prayers. It means the world to me. And Mandy thanks you too.

Mandy is doing well with the medication she is on.(Temaril-P) The last few days she hasn't scratched or chewed on herself at all. At first she was on 3 pills twice a day (due to her size) but was drinking and peeing way too much (a side effect) We have her on 2 pills twice a day until next Monday. Then we go to 1 pill twice a day for a week. Hopefully she'll be all better then or we'll need to find the cause of her itching.
Also, she is experiencing a false pregnancy again. The poor thing, it's one thing after another.
Thanks again for all thoughts and prayers, I'm praying so hard to God and St. Francis that this is seasonal allergies and she will be better. She seems so much better now, playing with her stuffies and romping around, she just has to be better!

Awww. Feel better Mandy

*update* Well, Mandy was doing so well on her meds, then she was done with them Monday night. Things were going good and when I came home at lunch to check on her today she was a mess! Her eyes were all puffy and she had rubbed them almost to bleeding around them. So back to the vets after work and back on some meds. Antihistamines to start, if they don't work I also have more Temoral-P she can get started on right away. The vet realizes this is a holiday weekend and we're not taking any chances.
I put some neosporin around her eyes at lunchtime and went back to work in tears. Lord I hope she's better again soon. The vet says she may have to stay on something permanantly. I don't care, I just want my baby to feel okay!
Please keep her in your prayers!
