Chandra,
I am not sure if Buddha got a steroid shot or not-- I think he
did, from what you said. I wanted to write to tell you that when the
effects seem to wear off, which hopefully will not be for a while, you should
ask for another steroid shot. It is ok to give them as often as he needs
them. Hopefully he will not need another one for a few weeks, but it is
possible he will need one in a few days. The way to tell when he needs one
is basically when he starts acting sick again and does not want to eat. The
steroids can pick them right back up again, up until pretty close to the
end. You may want to talk to the vet tech or another vet to work out who
will give the shot if he needs it before your vet gets back. Hopefully he won't,
though.
Here's hoping that he will not need one for a long time!
It is such a relief to know that he is happy and eating and being Buddha!
