Re: Bandy Update

Bandy's temp

I took Bandy to get his shot on Tues. and his temp was up to 105.4 again..He will go several days without a temp, then it spikes again...He received another 1/2cc dex shot and it always lowers it..but we don't want to do that as to compromise his immune system further. If it goes up again, we are

Re: Bandy's temp up again, Tues..

Bandy's temp is down for the moment..so I each time this happens, I do hope it is his turning point of it not going up again... The infection and fever started middle of June..He got better then relapsed around July 4 with a high fever...His WBC count was normal then and PCV low around 21..so more

Bandy's anemia
