With it being a long weekend I probably can't get back in to see the vet until Tuesday. They did say they would refill his antibiotic. I am hoping they are open today so I can do that. I still have the gentmycin drops and am giving him those. He did have an ulcerated cornea is the other eye which I assume is why he did not get the steroid drops for that eye. It has mostly cleared up but now his good eye is infected.
He would be blind if he lost site in this eye. He is not eating well. Maybe he misses Tiny. They did not get along but he still might be missing him. I don't know how you do it. This is very draining emotionally and financially. I can't get the best care because I cannot afford it. I went back to the archives and I will print Bandy's treatment for the vet to see. I have an appt for his immunoregulin shot on Friday. Hopefully I can talk with Dr Staunton then.

Bandy had this..If you will go check, the treatment that Bandy did worked...I talked to his eye specialist as recent as last Fri. as Bandy was to get check-up for eyes 1st of Jan..His spec was very pleased with his progress.. Back when I first took him...they did a toxo test...sent it off to Univ. of Colo..instead of Texas A and M..to check for that..Bandy was negative on that so we continued on with the treatment and it worked... We did frequently check for ulcers on the eye surface as the steroids will irritate that alot and you can't use them while an ulcer is present... I tell you one thing though...Bandy regained his sight after treatment was started. He would have remained on those drops the rest of his life anyway, but we went from 4 drops per eye a day to 1 drop every 3 or 4 days...A remarkable improvement... Please check the archives for Bandy's treatment and I hope this will help.. you must have regular glaucoma check ups though for rest of pets life..as the steroids can cause this with long term use...
