I havnt been on for a while as thankfully Jake and Jasmine have both been in good health. A couple of days ago though Jasmine started breathing heavily again. In December 2011 she had exactly the same thing. Steroids didnt seem to work. Eventually after a second course of antibiotics and a course of panacur she started to get better. This was after I had been told she probably had cancer and watching her lose weight over a couple of months.
I took her to the vet on Thursday and she dosnt have a temperature so he dosnt feel the need to treat her with antbiotics. He said he can hear something on her lungs and her breathing is laboured and gave her a steroid (!!) injection as he thinks its like an asthma type thing. I dont think the steroid injection has done anything. I've started her and Jake on the panacur - just incase. Though I dont see how worms could make her have trouble breathing. And shes on bisolvon which is a bronchial mucholytic?
The other thing the vet said sould be to give her an xray of her lungs to see how they are working - but worried about sedating her.
Just dont know what to do :-(
