Regression

I went away for 3 days as we were decreasing his optimmune to once a day. He regressed quite rapidly.

May 19 - noticed squinting again. He was rubbing his eyes after the BNP-Dex was administered. Increased optimmune to twice daily.

May 20 - discontinued BNP-Dex for one day, green mucous returned. Continued with BNP-Dex.

By the 21st of May I was discouraged and seeking a second opinion from a veterinary ophthalmologist. Despite increasing the optimmune his eyes were no longer responding to any treatment. I called my vet in the meantime and requested an ointment without steroids as I felt it was likely that he had formed another ulcer. We decided to wait out the weekend to see if the old protocol returned him to normal. It did not.

He spent the weekend squinting. I used the artificial tears as much as possible. He had lots of white mucous discharge. I kept him indoors as much as possible so he was not getting dirt in them. Switched to the BNP to avoid steroid use due to rubbing. I also started him on Benadryl 25 mg twice daily.

I made an appointment with a specialist for May 29.
