So worried Lionel is to have a steroid injection on Thursday *trembles with fear*
He has had terrible rapid breathing and mouth breathing for weeks now, he had a course of baytril and then septrin which did nothing.
He then had depocilin on which he made an improvement, enough for Christabel to then count his bpm which was 240, i have been counting him too and he is around 200 now and has been for 2 weeks so the depocilin has helped but not anywhere near enough.
Next step is steroid injection, if he has an underlying infection (which could possibly be an abcess as he has a bad history with them) then the steroid will make him worse I have a bad feeling about all of this
Does anyone have experience with steroid injections? Anyone had bad reactions to them?
