The Test Results Are In :(

Hello everyone. As a lot of you know I have been going through a whole lot with my allergies the past few weeks. I was going to the same dogtor for three years for these and he told mom that I was highly allergic to dust mites, flea saliva, and borderling lamb. Then all this time I had some shots and that was pretty much it even though mom kept going back all the time because of my skin. Well, this time I am missing a whole lot of fur from my whole belly area and it is starting to spread to my front arms and under my neck. Mom said it was time to get another opinion so we went to a new dogtor last week. Got another allergy test and today they called with the results this morning. I have more than 20 allergies it turns out. Mom is so upset that she trusted the old dogtor all this time. I have to have two shots every four days that mom has to learn to give me, she is a real wuss when it comes to needles though..... I also have to have pills every day and a new flea medicing too. Oh, and another food too. Mom said that she has no idea how she is going to afford all this since she is disabled but she is determined to make sure that I am ok and figure it out. Mom and I want everyfur out there to tell their moms and dads that if they are ever going through stuff like that with their dogtors then please don't wait as long as we did because of trying to trust them and make sure to get another opinion real soon! Please wish me luck my friends, I am sure going to need it and thanks for stopping by.

Once you get this under control it will be much easier to keep it that way.

We never did the testing, but I was nibbling myself raw at times... What did the trick for me was changing to Call of the Wild food.

Awww poor BInx, I'm sure the new medication will work and make you better. Your mum was very smart getting a second opinion, now you can get it all sorted out.
Take care and I hope you're better soon.
Lot's of love and kisses
Kylie and Michelle

Thank you everyone. It means a whole lot to mom and me that we have friends that are wondering about me and rooting us on like this! We are going to post how it is going all the time and hope that our experience helps some other furs that might be going through the same kind of stuff. The shots should be in any day now so wish us luck that I start to get better soon and mom is ok giving me all the shots.....
