Off to the Vet :/

I wanted to thank the ones that answered my post :) I'm happy to have found this forum. I'm off to take my Shih Tzu to the Vet in about 15 mins. Wish her luck? I love her SO much and hate to see her feeling so poorly :(
I have health issues myself and my doctor has told me over the past 7 years that in his opinion it would not be a good idea for me to be w/o a 4-legged to love! And I agree~

Thanks everyone

Hi Dawn...Thanks for the Note....I'm glad Magnolia's better....I tried to respond, but it would not go through....I then tried to send you a message to your page, that wouldn't go through, either.... It says your not accepting notes or messages.  
Anyway, just to let you know that I tried........Karla

Hi Karla & Seeana,
WoW, what a day! Karla, you were right honey, Magnolia does have a bit of an ear infection, not too bad, but the Vet said that would be why she was tilting her head and carefully scratching. She has a "Lion Head & Tail" cut, so her hair is extremely long on her head and tail, but I do her pony tails everyday. I feel horrible that I didn't see anything in her ears as I always make sure to comb them inside and out :(
She will always have her skin allergies I suppose and the Vet said that she possibly scratched until she became nauseous, causing her to not eat much, only to vomit bile.....
So, she was given a Kenalog Injection, Antibiotic and an Rx for Pepcid.
She's resting comfortably now, so that's a HUGE relief, for her and for my heart!

I'm so tired..... there was a pretty big ruckus between several dogs at the Vet and Maggs became very upset right before she went in to see the Doctor! Looooooong story
All I can say for now, is...... Some People! Arghhhhhhhhhh :-/

Thanks again to you both for your concern. It is MUCH appreciated =))
Blessings
Dawn
