TONY'S EYE: Have we found the problem??

[kherrmann3]

Yeah, how is the "little" baloney?

 

[Bo B Bunny]

About the same. He doesn't seem in pain, he's eating fine, and we're still putting the medicine in his eye, but tomorrow is the 2 week mark. I'll probably have to find a way to get him to the specialist. We're just financially strapped right now. I'm sure i Can juggle something and find the money.

 

[kherrmann3]

Some places take payments for pet care (they're somewhat hard to find, though). Otherwise, I've been told to charge it (if you have a low-interest card) if you absolutely need to. That's what my aunt/uncle had to do with their accident-prone dog. Don't ever let anyone tell you that a free dog, or pet for that matter, is the cheapest way to go (health bills, ugh!)

Good luck to you!

 

[Bo B Bunny]

Yeah, I'm working on my options. It's $120 to walk in the door.

We're a bit stressed right now: washer dying, dryer dying (nearest laundrymat is about 15 minutes from me) car acting up, kid needs his eyes checked, I need new glasses, Christmas!, Lexi's birthday, Hubby's work has been slow all year, horses need their hooves trimmed, just had to pay for book fees and some medical bills that I didn't know about! I also just found out the hubby didn't pay his chiropractor when he was supposed to last spring!!!!

The emergency fund had too many emergencies!

Now, my mother is being a total psycho and making all of the family miserable.

Oh the joys of life!

Tony groomed me tonight tho! :biggrin2:

It's funny how the little things in life make the crappy things look less-crappy, even for a moment!

Tony's eye was almost clear and then last night it got really foggy again. I'm trying to find a way to get him to the specialist. Something is going on.....

 

[kherrmann3]

Aww, I'm sorry to hear things have not been progressing as planned I hope you are able to get to the specialist soon.

:hug: for you, and plenty of nose rubs for Tony.

 

[Bo B Bunny]

Thanks. It seems like the world is falling apart for me right now! My bunnies are my babies next to my kids!

I hope 2009 is a better year!

I was wondering how Tony was getting on.

It's really odd that it seems to be doing well, only to go back to be cloudy again. Does sound like perhaps it's more than the food bowl causing the problem :?

I wish I could give Mr. Baloney the gift of speech...just for 5 minutes even.
Then maybe he could tell you what the problem is.

:?

 

[Maureen Las]

You and I in the same boat.....

I'll drink to that lol... :toastingbuns

I'm sending you and Tony lots and lots of :bunnyhug:I feel so bad that you've had such a rough time.... I hope that things pick up for you soon and that you can get to the bottom of this!

Thinking of you guys

 

[Bo B Bunny]

Thanks.

You know, we didn't put the antibiotics in his eye again and it seems better. Is that strange?

 

[kherrmann3]

Could those antibiotics be making them foggy?

 

[Bo B Bunny]

Well, we got those to fix it because it was foggy, but now I wonder if they aren't doing something more? Irritating it somehow?

 

[kherrmann3]

That's almost what it sounds like. Normally, eyes heal very quickly. I wonder if the antibiotics are hindering the healing process now? Have you called your normal vet and asked? They should be able to tell you if that's possible (without you having to go in).

 

[Maureen Las]

What is the antibiotic?

 

[Bo B Bunny]

It's that ointment one... fougera

 

[Maureen Las]

Fougera is a generic company ..there must be something else on the box or tube .. I looked it up and it looks llike they make bacitracin salve..and a few other eye salves
