Did your vet give your Tucson the immuno-regulin in a shot or through an IV? Did she have to stay at the vet or get to go home? I might need to go to another vet because my conversation today the vet seemed like we had done all we could do for Smokey. The fever is the big thing with him. He keeps getting a fever every 3 or 4 days. I had talked to another vet when I first found out Smokey was + because one of the vets where I take my pets gave me the option of finding Smokey another home or euthanasia. The other vet I spoke to told me not to let them put me in a corner about having Smokey euthanized. He said they have a few patients that are +. I don't want to see Smokey suffer but I don't know if he is right now.
