Took Killian to the vet Saturday because his nose is getting worse and his lip fold pyoderma is getting out of control.
Dr. believes it is autoimmune disease to add to his liver disease now. Since confirming the exact autoimmune disease would take a biopsy (Killian would have to be put under), we will not be able to do it. Another quandary is that the meds to help control the autoimmune d will affect his diseased liver. So now we are going to do the meds a little at a time (minimal dosage) and I have to watch him for liver distress closely.How much more can the poor dog take!! He lost 7 lbs. even though he was eating a lot.
Sandra, Rachel and others familiar with liver disease: what are the end stages? Thanks for any info.
