About two weeks ago, i notice a little redpimple type bump on Bonnies neck and the day after i rushed her to thevet, they told me it looks like ringworm and did some tests. a weeklater i get the results of it being a definite ringworm and gotmedicine for it.
Ive been treating her to this medicine, washing her with shampoo theygave me and someother medicine they gave. The thing is, the first spoti noticed completely cleared out, but it has spread to her ears, theback of her neck is completely bold now and crusty. im really scaredthat this is fatal and im going to have to put to her sleep.
has anyone else dealt with this? any opinions, suggestions, advice?
i have a feeling that this hurts her, because when i put medicine onher she runs around the cage in terror. she eats/drinks/poops normally.but doesnt come out of her cage to run around anymore because she lostall trust me in i guess.
i have an appointment with the vet on monday again, is there anything ishould ask specifically? should i even consider the option of what iconsider murder? or let her suffer in pain? i dont know what to do.
here are some pictures of her before the ringworm:

^ thats not the worst it has gotten, i dont have my camera right now soi dont have any recent pictures. i hope someone can help me.
Im sorry i didnt introduce myself, Im Zoya from Brooklyn, NY im 18years old. Hi everyone.
EDIT: 12.8.05 SHES BETTER!
So last week i went to the vet again, for a check up. and she gave meoral medicationg for Bonnie.. but im not really trustworthy of thisdoctor because anything she kept giving me just made Bonnie worse.
My mothers friend gave me this anti fungal gel she used for her catsringworm, and ive been using it and Bonnie is getting much better, theinfected area isnt spreading and the hair she lost is growing backhealthy. Im really happy, she seems to feel better aswell, she now runsaround my room like mad and creating touble in every corner.
THANK YOU EVERYONE WHO HAS HELPED ME!
