Yes, he should have had Steroid but they had run out at the vets! The Ranitidine injection is the one that has always boosted his appetitie but he's on oral of that already.
What's controversial about the steroid. Vet said it could supress his immune system but he was going to administer it anyhow.
Just that - it supresses the immune system. So in theory, if Tom has an infection somewhere it would allow that to proliferate. It's a risk, but in Tom's case I would think well justified. One injection would be fine I should think - to see how he got on.
I know they had run out - did they not offer to get some in so he could have it?
